To Make Typing Backslashes In Tex-Mode Easier, I Have
Redefined The Slash Key ("/") To Type A Backslash Using The
Following Line In Tex-Mode.El:
(Define-Key Tex-Mode-Map "/" 'Backslash)
Where 'Backslash Is Defined By (Fset 'Backslash "\\"). This
Works Fine. But Trying To Define A Key To Insert A Slash
Is A Problem. Doing The Obvious Either Leads To Some Sort
Infinite Regress Error, Or Printing A Backslash, Not A
Slash. Any Gnu Emacs Wizards Out There With The (Un-
Doubtedly Simple) Solution?
