Kile ⇒ Mathmode in Kile (Ubuntu 8.10)

[chenxu]

I hope someone here can help me out.
Before switching to Kile, I used Winedt.
Now Kile goes well except one thing I don't know how to do.
In Kile, I use Markup/Latex for the color and highlight. In the tex file, if I write down a $ to start a mathmode, then the words(until the end of the tex file) after this letter"$" turn green. When I finish the mathmode by another $, then the color of the words turn back. It is very unpleasant since when I modify the very first part of a tex file with more than 1000 lines, it takes the machine half second or one second to respond since Kile needs to change the color of the words after that $ which are, e.g., 900 lines.
It is different in Winedt which is much smarter. When I start a $, Windet only changes the color of the words before the next $, or do nothing which is considerably short and I never noticed the delay in Winedt.
I think there is a way to configure the latex.xml to make Kile works like Winedt. But I don't know how to do it. Can any one help me out?

If not done yet, you should split your document into several files (i. e. for each chapter) and include these files with the \include command inside a master file which contains only the declaration of the document class, package inclusions and similar things. As a result you don't have thousands of lines in a single file and the effect will nearly disappear.
