Hello Some of you might remember several discussions between the Auctex developers and the Xemacs team about the fact that the Auctex pkg provided by Xemacs was outdated, unfortunately. Some of the Auctex team even recommended to delete the auctex pkg. (However the synchronization proved quite difficult since preview latex was included and the whole installation process was changed) Thanks to the excellent work of Mats Lidell, who did all the necessary modification in the relevant Makefiles and whom I can't thank enough, it seems now that the synchronization is finished. I did some basic testing comparing the pkg provided by the Auctex team with ours and both seem to work well. However there are 3 issues I would like to discuss: - the installation *needs* Latex, the Local.rules file has to be changed accordingly and Norbert must have latex installed on his machine. - the procedure of generating the auto-autoload.el files had changed completely and proved to be the major headache. Now the only solution so far is to modify Xemacs.rules.[1] We would love to hear about a solution which would just modify the local Makefile of auctex, but till then, Mats solution is only option. I would like to hear opinions about that issue and finally receive an approval for the Xemacs.rules patch because otherwise auctex cannot be synchronized. We can continue the discussion on xemacs-patch if that is more appropriate. - Finally I would like to ask an advice concerning CVS. The structure of the auctex tree has changed considerably. Of course I could use cvs add newfile cvs remove oldfile Etc However it looks much more convient to delete *all* files and subdirectories and then copy the new auctex tree and add all new files. Does anybody now about some scripting doing that? regards Uwe Brauer [1] I attach the patch _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
