Greetings fellow emTeXers,

I don't know how big the set OS/2 /\ emTeX /\ Emacs is (surely it is non
empty!), but here is how I got AUC TeX to work with GNU Emacs and emTeX
for OS/2 2.0, in case any one is interested.  My method is probably crude,
but it works (at least on my machine).  On a 386/25DX with 8M memory and
an all hpfs drive, the speed is quite good.

1. Apply the following patch to auc-tex.el:

5. Byte-compile the AUC TeX files and fire up emacs.

6. Become thoroughly spoiled and forget all the LaTeX control sequences.

Note: 1. Auctex documentation says it is available from iesd.auc.dk (and
         possibly elsewhere).  I just copied it from a local Unix machine.
      2. GNU tar, patch and compress for OS/2 are all available from
         hobbes.nmsu.edu (128.123.35.151).
      3. GNU Emacs (a courtsey of E.Mattes and others) is also available
         from hobbes.nmsu.edu.  It can be installed only on an hpfs
         partition (>= 10M), no 8+3 file name nonsense.
