Dear Mosè Ah, yes I understand. I'm always editing included files, which are my working files. My master just contains all the LaTeX options, packages, etc. I can see your use is a bit different. Thanks for the information; it's good to see how other people use auctex. Best wishes, Colin. _______________________________________________ auctex mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex
