Re: [AUCTeX] C-c RET \bigl without newlines

[gojjoe]

Hi Tamas,

TeX-insert-macro calls TeX-after-insert-macro-hook after 
insertion, so a way to achieve this could be to modify that 
hook in a suitable way. For example, if we modify it by

(add-hook 'TeX-after-insert-macro-hook '(lambda() 
(delete-char 1) (delete-char -1)))


then calling "C-c RET \bigl (" will give you

\bigl(\bigl)

with point after "(". But this doesn't really work because 
it messes up with the insertion of other macros. You could 
write a more complex hook that will delete characters around 
point only if TeX-insert-macro was used with "\bigl", for 
example. But I don't know how to achieve this right now...

Sorry for the partial suggestion, I hope it's somehow useful.

Cheers,
J
