AUC TeX is a TeX environment for most variants of GNU Emacs,
supporting many different TeX formats, among them plain TeX, LaTeX and
friends, their AMS variants, and GNU TeXinfo. There are also support
for Japanese and several European languages. AUC TeX works under
UNIX, DOS, and OS/2.
AUC TeX version 9.2 is now available by anonymous ftp from:
ftp://ftp.iesd.auc.dk/pub/emacs-lisp/auctex.tar.gz
You can read more about AUC TeX on the World Wide Web at:
http://www.iesd.auc.dk/~amanda/auctex/
As usual, thanks to the members of the AUC TeX mailing list for useful
comments, contribution of code and documentation, and alpha testing.
If you are interested in the continued development of AUC TeX, please
join the mailing list by sending a request to
auc-tex-request@iesd.auc.dk
This is mainly a bug-fix release. LaTeX2e support is a bit better.
A list of changes since version 9.1 is included below, but first a
short feature list for new users:
AUC TeX features
================
* Source formatting and indentation of LaTeX files.
* Smart keyboard functions for insertion of all LaTeX macros and
environments. The functions will prompt for any arguments to the
macros, and provide completion for most of them.
* Outlines and folding based on the LaTeX sectioning macros.
* You can run all TeX and LaTeX related commands from within Emacs.
AUC TeX will translate the obscure TeX and LaTeX error messages
into English or Japanese, and automatically position the cursor
at the offending lines.
* AUC TeX support multi-file documents. Examples:
- When you run TeX or LaTeX, AUC TeX will always chose the main
file of the document.
- When you insert a reference (\ref), AUC TeX will complete with
all labels defined anywhere in the document.
* AUC TeX will automatically parse and extract information from tex
and sty files, both for the site and for your own files. This is
how it knows what macros, labels, files, etc. you use in the
current document.
* You can learn AUC TeX incrementally, so you can just use the
features you like and ignore the rest.
* A 60+ pages user manual and a 1 page reference card are included.
News in 9.2
===========
* Bug fixes.
* New file `bib-cite.el' contributed by Peter S. Galbraith
`<rhogee@bathybius.meteo.mcgill.ca>'. This file is not installed
or enabled by default and is not part of the basic AUC TeX
package. If you have problems, questions, or suggestions, please
direct them to Peter.
* New file `hilit-LaTeX.el' contributed by Peter S. Galbraith
`<rhogee@bathybius.meteo.mcgill.ca>'. This file is not installed
or enabled by default and is not part of the basic AUC TeX
package. If you have problems, questions, or suggestions, please
direct them to Peter.
* AUC TeX is now less likely to suggest running BibTeX when it is
not needed.
* Press `M-x LaTeX-209-to-2e ret' to make a stab at converting a
LaTeX 2.09 header to LaTeX2e.
* `C-c C-m input ret' should be faster now on second try.
* New variable `LaTeX-left-right-indent-level' controls the
indentation added by `\left'.
* `\begin', `\end', `\left', and `\right' no longer need to be at
the beginning of the line to take effect.
* You can now delete and replace LaTeX2e style fonts.
* Moved external commands to new menu.
* `C-c C-m cite ret' will prompt for multiple keys.
* Better handling of `"' with `german.sty'.
* New variable `LaTeX-paragraph-commands' lists LaTeX commands that
shouldn't be formatted as part of a paragraph.
* Older news moved to `history.texi'. It is not TeXinfo able, but you
can get a plaintext version with `make HISTORY'.
* See the new `ChangeLog' file for a more detailed list of changes.
The history section will now only contain user level changes. If
you send me a patch, please also provide a ChangeLog entry.
