[AUCTeX-devel] Fontification of optional argument to verbatim environment

[Mosè Giordano]

Hi all,

some verbatim-like environments, notably those provided by the
fancyvrb and listings packages, takes an optional argument. As
reported here [1], AUCTeX fails to correctly fontify optional
arguments longer than one line. Do you have objections against
installing the attached patch in AUCTeX? It is the same code provided
in the answer in the above link, plus some comments. In the answer
there are also examples of how the patch improves fontification.

Actually, I found a limitation: fontification gets broken while one
edits the longer-than-one-line-optional-argument, and this is fixed by
reverting the buffer, but for the time being fontification of these
longer-than-one-line-optional-arguments is somewhat wrong anyway.
