Hi all
Almost all LaTeX source files I receive from colleagues have dozens or
more definitions of the sort
\newcommand{\fluidenergy}[1]{\underline{E}_{\partial \Phi;#1}}
\newcommand{\eq}[2]{
\begin{equation}\label{E:#1}
\begin{aligned}
#2
\end{aligned}
\end{equation}
}
\newcommand{\rrho}{\rho}
etc
I understand that this might be a little faster for typing (if one
remembers all the definitions 😇), but it causes problems
1. The Emacs, AuCTeX filling functions will not work properly
2. The prettify-mode will not work as expected (and I am going to
add these definitions to the tex--prettify-symbols-alist
(add-to-list 'tex--prettify-symbols-alist more))
So usually I expand (query-replace) the most annoying definitions.
Do you think that could be done somehow in a bit more automated way.
For example
\newcommand{\fluidenergy}[1]{\underline{E}_{\partial \Phi;#1}}
^cursor
Run magic, auctex-replace-macro-in-buffer
That magic lisp function would scan the line,
1. Observe what is the definiens (\fluidenergy)
2. Observe what is the definiendum, \underline{E}_{\partial
\Phi;#1}
But then would run query-replace correctly?
Do you think that is possible
Now that I realize it, I think I will also write the auctex-dev list
Kind regards
Uwe Brauer
