The second can be done without changing the code of
`prettify-symbols-mode`: you want to change
`prettify-symbols-compose-predicate` which contains the function that decides
whether a given occurrence should be prettified or not.
E.g. the default is the function `prettify-symbols-default-compose-p`
defined as follows:
(defun prettify-symbols-default-compose-p (start end _match)
"Return true iff the symbol MATCH should be composed.
The symbol starts at position START and ends at position END.
This is the default for `prettify-symbols-compose-predicate'
which is suitable for most programming languages such as C or Lisp."
;; Check that the chars should really be composed into a symbol.
(let* ((syntaxes-beg (if (memq (char-syntax (char-after start)) '(?w ?_))
'(?w ?_) '(?. ?\\)))
(syntaxes-end (if (memq (char-syntax (char-before end)) '(?w ?_))
'(?w ?_) '(?. ?\\))))
(not (or (memq (char-syntax (or (char-before start) ?\s)) syntaxes-beg)
(memq (char-syntax (or (char-after end) ?\s)) syntaxes-end)
(nth 8 (syntax-ppss))))))
You'd presumably want to then define your own such function which does
pretty much the same except that it doesn't accept the syntax `_`:
(defun texinf-prettify-symbols-compose-p (start end _match)
;; We know the matches all start with a backslash and end with
;; a word-element.
(not (or (memq (char-before start) '(?\\))
(memq (char-syntax (or (char-after end) ?\s)) '(?w))
(nth 8 (syntax-ppss)))))
