I've looked for a solution to this a number of times. Suppose 'kg' normally expands to 'knowledge' in my abbrev file. I wonder if there is any way to get emacs to expand after a single or double quotation mark, as in expanding from
"kg
to
"knowledge
I don't know lisp well but am willing to play with my .emacs. Thanks for any help!
Edit: I just noticed that it works fine in the scratch buffer, but not in markdown or LaTeX modes.
