# Pronunciation in LaTeX mode


The way I usually spot these is by using lacheck -- a checker
that comes as part of auctex.

You can hear repeated spaces by simply specifying the space char
to command dtk-add-cleanup-pattern bound to C-e d a.

You could also define a temporary pronunciation for " {"
in a buffer that you want to check.
