Q3.3.4: How do I turn off current chapter from AUC TeX modeline?

With AUC TeX, fast typing is hard because the current chapter, section etc. are given in the modeline. How can I turn this off?

It’s not AUC TeX, it comes from func-menu in func-menu.el.

Try this; you’ll still get the function name displayed in the modeline, but it won’t attempt to keep track when you modify the file. To refresh when it gets out of synch, you simply need click on the ‘Rescan Buffer’ option in the function-menu.
