Re: Question on Mule and Makor2, font display vs char input? |

Hi,
Is there an easy way to define/redefine how Mule operates. For
example, can a custom Mule Language environment be easily defined?
There is a LaTeX font environment called makor2 which allows a user to
create output using Hebrew characters. These output characters are
often defined by multi-byte combinations. So it would be nice to have
an Emacs mode which allowed a user at the keyboard to type a single
input key and have that keystroke display the proper corresponding
Hebrew character on the screen while placing the proper set of
matching characters into the file for LaTeX Makor2. There is a
standard keyboard setup use in Israel which can be followed and a set
of Mule Hebrew screen fonts seem to be readily available.
Is there an easy way to use the existing Mule Hebrew character set as
a starting point to create a new Emacs mode definition which will just
output the needed Makor2 multi-byte character set?
Thanks
I've got a very similar question, but for math characters as
opposed to hebrew characters.
Any advice on how to make a string already entered into the buffer
render according to the current input method? For example, a function
I could run that would make the string in quotes "\lambda" appear as a
lambda character in quotes. Preferably this would be a function that
would run on a string and then use an overlay to change the way the
text looks and "feels" when you're editing (but when you save the
buffer, it would save as latex code, by default). Another function
would run over the whole buffer, doing the quail translations as it
went.
I think the undocumented function `quail-keyseq-translate' may be
relevant, but I'm not sure how to use it.
Help?

I'm not sure what you mean by TeXmacs-type stuff. But there's the TeX
input method `C-x RET C-\ TeX', which lets you input maths characters.
There are also some third-party packages such as x-symbol,
latex-preview, whizzytex, imaxima etc. which do something you might
consider TeXmacs-like.
