Probably because (a) you don't have the AUC-TeX package or (b) the
AUC-TeX configuration is missing. To solve (a), use Tools | Packages
| Add Download Site to configure an XEmacs mirror, then Tools |
Packages | List and Install to get the AUC-TeX package. For (b), put
(require 'tex-site) in your init file. You may have to edit the
AUC-TeX tex-site.el library.
Some people still use the old tex-mode (believe it or not), and
configuring AUC-TeX automatically without breaking their habits is
troublesome. The work around is simple (I think), so this isn't
terribly high priority for us; if you want to figure out how it works
and submit a patch that doesn't confound tex-mode users we'd be very
grateful. It's on my todo list....
If it's not one of (a) or (b), please let us know. Also, if you have
to edit the tex-site file, please let us know. It should be possible
to have a standard tex-site file for the typical XEmacs installation
that works "out of the box."
