Hi,

electric pair mode automatically closes parentheses like (,[,{,... Can I
customize this such that when I edit a latex document it also closes
expressions like \left( with \right)?

Regards,
Laurent

Hi,

if I try to change this option (through the customize interface) by
adding \left( and \right) to the list, emacs complains with the
following message:

Saving electric-pair-pairs: This field should contain a single character.

Regards,
Laurent

Sorry for the disinfo, I didn't actually attempt to customize it, only
saw that it was customizable, and assumed that it would allow arbitrary,
as opposed to single-character-only pair definitions.

Perhaps you can get something working with skeleton-mode
(http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/SkeletonPair) ?

I don't think you can right now.  But patches to enable such things
would be welcome,

Hi,

after a bit of googling I actually found this:

which does exactly what I want.

Regards,
Laurent
