Nice. > This discussion is about including xdvi-search.el in a Debian package, > which is unclear. I think that xdvi-search.el has nothing to do with AUCTeX and only with TeX.

The pleasure of using (La)TeX is immensely augmented by the proper use of AUCTeX and once you get used to it, you'll never want to go back. Trust me. BTW, I'd also recommend using it with RefTeX and with preview-latex, if you have not used them yet. > > So given that fact, should I: > > (...) > > or 2- Include it in emacs-goodies-el, but document in the Info file that > > this can also be done using auctex exclusively. > > The second option might serve to advertise auctex to potential new > > users, so I'd vote for that.

I think that it can be used without any problems with Emacs's built-in mode (even though I haven't tested that). > ¹ did that work? there's no package "tetex" It was added by Peter, but I followed suit and it didn't bound, at least. :-) Regards, Rogério Brito. -- Rogério Brito : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : http://www.ime.usp.br/~rbrito Homepage of the algorithms package : http://algorithms.berlios.de Homepage on freshmeat: http://freshmeat.net/projects/algorithms/
