I have cygwin as the shell to run when one types M-x shell. I presume (though I do not know for sure) that this means cygwin is also the shell that emacs/auctex uses to run latex. The only command I changed from the tex-site.el defaults was the print command (to "dvips -o") in (defcustom TeX-printer-list '(("Local" "dvips -o %s.ps %s" "lpq") .......)) The relevant lines from my .emacs file are given below: Steve -------------------------------------------------- ;;;; tell emacs where to look for lisp files (setq load-path (cons "d:/cygwin/elisp" load-path)) ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; BEGIN AUCTEX ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; (require 'tex-site) (setq tex-default-mode 'latex-mode) (setq text-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill) ;;; AUCTEX contributed files (if window-system (require 'hilit-LaTeX)) ;; highlight latex commands ; (if window-system (require 'font-latex)) ;; font lock (highlights C commands) ; (autoload 'turn-on-bib-cite "bib-cite") ;;; bib-cite (add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'turn-on-bib-cite) ;;;;;;;;;;;;;; END AUCTEX ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ------------------------------------------ -----Original Message----- From: Markus Hoenicka To: Scott, Steven Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 2/1/2002 7:42 AM Subject: auctex can only see .tex files in HOME directory Hi, I could not reproduce this problem on my home box. I updated the Cygwin installation yesterday, and I use AucTeX 10.0.g, Emacs 21.1, and Cygwin's teTeX. What shell do you use to run the TeX commands in Emacs? How did you set it up? regards, Markus Scott, Steven writes: > I recently updated my Cygwin distribution and now aucTeX will only > work on documents (i.e. .tex files) in my HOME directory.
