OK, now it works.. maybe next time I try to do what I'm told before I complain again... So you seem to be right that tex/latex-modes are sub-domains of text, although I don't understand why. Speaking of understanding, I don't understand very much of emacs' behaviour and its config file. However, emacs is the best text editor I've ever used, so once it works I will never again bother with .emacs! Thanks again joerg
