Re: [AUCTeX] AUCTEX with multiple modes

[Vincent Belaïche]

As far as I can understand you are sort of embedding Maxima code into LaTeX
code and you would like the Maxima edit mode for the pieces of Maxima codes
only.

I think that the same sort of thing is needed for Asymptote 
(http://asymptote.sourceforge.net/), not sure how/whether they handle it.
Maybe you should investigate whether people with similar problems have found
any standard solution to do it.
