Enabling math specific syntax highlighting/prettifying in auctex

mathspecifichighlighting.el

;; Code from Phil Hirschhorn's suggestion

(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'add-my-latex-environments)
(defun add-my-latex-environments ()
  (LaTeX-add-environments
     '("dmath" LaTeX-env-label)))

;; Code I added to make syntax highlighting work in Auctex

(custom-set-variables
 '(font-latex-math-environments (quote 
     ("display" "displaymath" "equation" "eqnarray" "gather" "multline" 
      "align" "alignat" "xalignat" "dmath")))
  '(TeX-insert-braces nil)) ;;Stops putting {} on argumentless commands to "save" whitespace

;; Additionally, reftex code to recognize this environment as an equation
(setq reftex-label-alist
  '(("dmath" ?e nil nil t)))
