$ in customized verbatim environment confuses Latex-mode

[Thorsten Jolitz]

Hi List,

I have a customized verbatim environment for Latex documents, lets call
it wideverbatim, and there is a small problem:

,---------------------
| \begin{wideverbatim}
| $ foo
| \end{wideverbatim}
`---------------------

lets the buffer beyond the '$' sign look like in math mode (until
another 'free' $ is found) - no fontification anymore. However, compiling
and everything works fine, it seems only the fontification in the buffer
becomes distorted.

When I change it to

,-----------------
| \begin{verbatim}
| $ foo
| \end{verbatim}
`-----------------

everything looks alright again. But when I try something like

,---------------------
| \begin{wideverbatim}
| \$ foo
| \end{wideverbatim}
`---------------------

fontification returns to normal, but the \ backslash is printed in the
output.

Its not really a serious problem, since everything still works, but
maybe there is an easy remedy? It looks ugly and makes working in the
buffer more difficult.

assuming you use auctex, i suspect customizing the variable
LaTeX-verbatim-environments and adding "wideverbatim" to itwill get you
what you want.

That does the job, thank you.
