Hi,

\newenvironment{myalltt}
{\begin{alltt}%
   \IamAllowedToDefineWrapperOfAllTT
   \ButFontificationByAucTeXIsProblematic
  }
{\end{alltt}}

causes fontification problem. I can use \alltt and \endalltt
but this forces me to change TeX code for this issue.

(alltt is not implemented like standard verbatim, the latter
would indeed not allow the above kind of redefinition)

Best,

Jean-François

This is not limited to "alltt" but to any verbatim-like environment.
Possible workaround

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\newenvironment{myalltt}
{%
\begin{alltt}%
  ...
  }
{\end{alltt}}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Bye,
Mosè

Thanks for the workaround. In the meantime
I had used 

{\end{alltt}}% \end{alltt}

but yours has even less fontification (only
opening brace)

Bye,
Jean-François
