Dear all, if I choose XeTeX with a comment-option at the end of the document, opening the file results in Emacs saying tha max-lisp-eval-depth has been exceeded.
As a result, running the AUCTeX shortcuts for running LaTeX, does not work (without defaults given). Leaving out below option and doing 'M-x TeX-engine-set RET xetex' produces no hiccups. Best, Florian Minimal non-working example: """ \documentclass{article} \title{Minimal working example} \author{Florian} \begin{document} \maketitle \section{What happens} This does not load AUCTeX correctly with the XeTeX commented option at the end of the document, but works fine without it. With the option, Emacs says that 'max-lisp-eval-depth' is exceeded and commands for compiling the document under AUCTeX are not available. Leaving out below option and doing 'M-x TeX-engine-set RET xetex' produces no hiccups. \end{document} % Let's try XeTeX: %%% Local Variables: %%% coding: utf-8 %%% mode: latex %%% TeX-engine: xetex %%% End: """ Emacs : GNU Emacs 28.1 (build 2, x86_64-w64-mingw32) of 2022-04-21 Package: 14.0.3.2024-03-17 current state: ============== (setq AUCTeX-date "2024-03-17" window-system 'w32 LaTeX-version "2e" TeX-style-path '("~/.emacs.d/auctex" "c:/Users/ladi/.emacs.d/elpa/auctex-14.0.4/style" "c:/Users/ladi/.emacs.d/auctex/auto" "c:/Users/ladi/.emacs.d/auctex/style" "auto" "style") TeX-auto-save nil TeX-parse-self nil TeX-master t TeX-command-list '(("TeX" "%(PDF)%(tex) %(file-line-error) %`%(extraopts) %S%(PDFout)%(mode)%' %(output-dir) %t" TeX-run-TeX nil (plain-TeX-mode AmSTeX-mode Texinfo-mode) :help "Run plain TeX") ("LaTeX" "%`%l%(mode)%' %T" TeX-run-TeX nil (LaTeX-mode docTeX-mode) :help "Run LaTeX") ("Makeinfo" "makeinfo %(extraopts) %(o-dir) %t" TeX-run-compile nil (Texinfo-mode) :help "Run Makeinfo with Info output") ("Makeinfo HTML" "makeinfo %(extraopts) %(o-dir) --html %t" TeX-run-compile nil (Texinfo-mode) :help "Run Makeinfo with HTML output") ("AmSTeX" "amstex %(PDFout) %`%(extraopts) %S%(mode)%' %(output-dir) %t" TeX-run-TeX nil (AmSTeX-mode) :help "Run AMSTeX") ("ConTeXt" "%(cntxcom) --once --texutil %(extraopts) %(execopts)%t" TeX-run-TeX nil (ConTeXt-mode) :help "Run ConTeXt once") ("ConTeXt Full" "%(cntxcom) %(extraopts) %(execopts)%t" TeX-run-TeX nil (ConTeXt-mode) :help "Run ConTeXt until completion") ("BibTeX" "bibtex %(O?aux)" TeX-run-BibTeX nil (plain-TeX-mode LaTeX-mode docTeX-mode AmSTeX-mode Texinfo-mode ConTeXt-mode) :help "Run BibTeX") ("Biber" "biber %(output-dir) %s" TeX-run-Biber nil (plain-TeX-mode LaTeX-mode docTeX-mode AmSTeX-mode Texinfo-mode) :help "Run Biber") ("Texindex" "texindex %s.??"
