This means that the default value of `TeX-command-list' is changed. • Add new support files `style/authblk.el', `style/langscibook.cls', `style/lstautogobble.el', `style/lstlinebgrd.el', `style/ninecolors.el', `style/supertabular.el', `style/tabularray.el' and `style/xtab.el'. Changed ─────── • AUCTeX 13.3 marks the last standalone tarball release. From now on, AUCTeX releases are made available through the [Emacs Lisp Package Archive (ELPA)]. Distro packagers are encouraged to use the [ELPA] packages as-is and install them under one of the new Emacs locations for system-wide packages, see `package-directory-list'. At the same time, development is now done on the `main' branch and the `master' branch has been deleted. Its last state has been pushed as `auctex-13' branch for archiving purposes but it won't get any updates anymore. For users who tracked the master branch: Do `git switch main' to switch to the main branch where development takes place nowadays. • Move additions to the variable `LaTeX-indent-environment-list' for various tabular environments to `latex.el' from the respective style files. [Emacs Lisp Package Archive (ELPA)] <https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/auctex.html> [ELPA] <https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/auctex.html> Fixed ───── • Fold argument of verbatim macros more accurately. Removed ─────── • Remove the possibility to disable the side-wide installation with: ┌──── │ (unload-feature 'tex-site) └──── Using this form when installed from [ELPA] will throw an error. [ELPA] <https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/auctex.html> [14.0.6] - 2024-06-30 ═════════════════════ Added ───── • Complete support for in-buffer completion of color support macros. • Add new support files `style/contract.el', `style/diagbox.el' and `style/standalone.el'. Fixed ───── • Add appropriate `delete-selection' properties for `LaTeX-insert-left-brace', `TeX-insert-dollar' and `TeX-insert-backslash' that differentiate between the "electric" and "just-insert-the-symbol" behavior. That should simplify cooperation with other electric modes. As a result of this adjustment, the behavior of `TeX-insert-dollar' is affected in some ways: • With raw prefix argument `C-u', `$' (`TeX-insert-dollar') now inserts four dollars as opposed to one. This behavior is in-line with other symbols, in particular `"' (`TeX-insert-quote') and `\' (`TeX-insert-backslash'). If you need one literal `$', you can type `C-1 $' or `C-q $'. • We no longer have explicit support of the special behavior that if `TeX-electric-math' is non-`nil' and point is inside math mode right between a couple of single dollars, pressing `$' will insert another pair of dollar signs and leave the point between them. It still works as before if `TeX-electric-math' is pair of dollars while it inserts `\(' and `\)' when `TeX-electric-math' is `("\(" . "\)")'. • When `TeX-electric-math' is a pair of dollars and the point is in inline math (without active region), `$' inserts two dollars, not one dollar which just closes the math mode. • Recognize `.ltx' extension as regular LaTeX file. Removed ─────── • Delete function `LaTeX-env-contents'. • Delete obsolete variables `TeX-symbol-marker', `TeX-symbol-marker-pos', `TeX-dollar-sign', `TeX-dollar-string' and `TeX-dollar-regexp'. • Delete obsolete minor-mode `TeX-Omega-mode'. [14.0.5] - 2024-05-19 ═════════════════════ Added ───── • Add support for indirect buffers cloned from buffers visiting a file. In indirect buffer, preview-latex works correctly when the command `preview-region' is invoked. The command `preview-document' puts … …
