[AUCTeX] Re: Auctex is nice,but sometimes slow down the input.

[Jim Zhang]

I think identify the problem.
It is because
when I end "align" environment",
I put "\end {align}", instead of "\end{align}". No SPACE between  
"\end" and "align".
This space thing is not problem for compiling. I hope you guys can  
fix this bug, if it is worthwhile.
And if so, would you please let me know how?

Thanks,
