Here is the code of the file: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- \documentclass[10pt]{article} \usepackage{amsmath} \begin{document} \begin{verbatim} (setq LaTeX-fold-math-spec-list (append '(("[{1}/{2}]" ("frac" "tfrac")) ("[{1}⇣{2}]" ("underset")) ("[{1}⇡{2}]" ("overset")) ("√[{1}]" ("sqrt"))) LaTeX-fold-math-spec-list)) \end{verbatim} $\frac{1}{2} \tfrac{1}{2} \overset{1}{2} \underset{\hslash\to 0}{ \longrightarrow} \sqrt{9}$ \end{document} --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- What I did was: 1) Open a new tex file 2) Eval the setq form (put cursor after the last parenthesis and hit `C-x C-e' 3) Hitting `M-x TeX-fold-mode RET' and `C-c C-o C-b'.
