Using conceal in Vim with LaTeX

Kinda reminds me of Suns Fortress language which can be rendered to richer display. Look at some examples at http://projectfortress.sun.com/Projects/Community/wiki/Fortr...

Conceal is a very neat new feature. I posted a little thing showing how you might use this in Ruby as well.

At the bottom of the post, there are links to all the conceal write-ups I came across (this LaTeX one, plus one each for Python, Perl and Haskell).

This file contains an example of how you could do similar things (printing \lambda for lambda functions) in emacs using font-lock.

  (string 54091)

Gives some Chinese character; the unicode character for Lambda is 955, though. Replacing it with (string 955) works.
