abbrev-mode

[Fabrizio Sidoli]

Hi,

I was wondering if you could tell me if it is possible to use special 
characters in abbrev-mode.

Under Xemacs the following abbreviation

    ("\\ha" "{\\ha} " nil 0)

gives the result {\ha} when the characters "\ha" are typed.

Under emacs, this is not possible. One has to define the following

    ("ha" "{\\ha} " nil 0)

such that typing "ha" yields {\ha}. Is there a work around to this in 
emacs?

Many thanks,
Fabrizio
