disable subscript superscript raise/lower?

disable subscript superscript raise/lower?

[Benjamin]

GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (i386-redhat-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.9)
Using emacs in LaTeX mode shows superscript and subscript as raised
and lowered respectively, which is kind of neat, but sort of breaks
the spartan "simplicity" of emacs that I have come to like, and
renders some of the sub sub scripts unreadable.  How do I disable this
feature?

Thanks,

-Ben

Are you sure you are not confusing Emacs with ed?

Assuming you are using Emacs' built-in TeX mode, Stefan Monnier provided
a hack on this list before:

(eval-after-load "tex-mode" '(fset 'tex-font-lock-suscript 'ignore)) 

If you are using a development version of Emacs, you can simply
customize `tex-fontify-script'.

Pretty sure I'm using emacs, do other editors exist?   :-)

Without knowing better, I'll assume that the LaTeX mode is the same as
the built in TeX mode (it says (LaTeX) at the bottom of my emacs
screen).

Works perfectly, Thanks.  I did a search using Google Groups but
didn't see Stefan's post.

Cheers,
