Changes and New Features in AUCTeX
**********************************
News in 11.89
=============
* You can now run all commands needed to compile a document and then
open the viewer with a single command: 'TeX-command-run-all', bound
to 'C-c C-a'.
* Commands such as LaTeX and View can now be executed conveniently on
the current section (or part, chapter, subsection, etc). See
'LaTeX-command-section' and 'LaTeX-command-section-change-level'.
* Forward and backward search with Evince now also work when only a
region of the document is compiled/viewed.
* To open the PDF output file you can now use also PDF Tools, a
document viewer for Emacs. With it, as a plus, forward and
backward search is accurate at word level.
* With new option 'TeX-PDF-via-dvips-ps2pdf' it is possible to
compile a document to DVI and then convert it to PDF using
'dvips'-'ps2pdf' before viewing it.
* New option 'TeX-file-line-error' allows to select file:line:error
style for error messages.
* Indent '\[...\]' math mode as a regular environment by default.
* Now AUCTeX suggests to run 'makeindex' when appropriate.
* 'TeX-view-program-list' can contain, as third optional element of
each item, the name of the executable(s) needed to open the viewer.
* 'TeX-expand-list' variable has been split into 'TeX-expand-list'
and 'TeX-expand-list-builtin'. Only the former is intended to be
customized by the user, the latter contains built-in expanders.
You might want to keep in 'TeX-expand-list' only new expansion
strings.
* Before running commands like TeX and LaTeX, now AUCTeX performs
some checks. If 'TeX-check-TeX' is non-nil, it will test whether a
working TeX distribution is actually present in the system and
available to Emacs. Instead, when 'TeX-check-engine' is non-nil,
before running LaTeX commands AUCTeX will check whether the correct
engine has been set, based upon known restrictions posed by LaTeX
packages.
* Basic support to ConTeXt Mark IV has been added. Users can now
select the Mark version to be used with new option
'ConTeXt-Mark-version', and AUCTeX is able to catch error messages
in the output log of a Mark IV document.
* Support for tons of LaTeX packages has been addedd.
* Numbers of bugs have been fixed, many minor features have been
addedd.
News in 11.88
=============
* 'TeX-PDF-mode' is now enabled by default.
* Now 'TeX-previous-error' works with TeX commands if the new option
'TeX-parse-all-errors' is non-nil, which is the default. When this
option is non-nil, an overview of errors and warnings reported by
the TeX compiler can be opened with 'M-x TeX-error-overview <RET>'.
* Style file authors are encouraged to distinguish common from expert
macros and environments, and mark the latter using
'TeX-declare-expert-macros' and
'LaTeX-declare-expert-environments'.
Users can then restrict completion using
'TeX-complete-expert-commands'.
* Management of LaTeX package options in the parser was improved.
You might need to reparse your documents, especially if you loaded
the 'babel' package with language options.
* Now you can insert '$...$' or '\(...\)' by typing a single '$'. To
do this, customize the new option 'TeX-electric-math'.
'TeX-math-close-double-dollar' was removed.
* 'C-c <RET> documentclass <RET>' completes with all available LaTeX
classes, if the 'TeX-arg-input-file-search' variable is non-nil.
Completion for class options of the standard LaTeX classes is
provided as well.
* New user options 'LaTeX-default-author',
'LaTeX-fontspec-arg-font-search',
'LaTeX-fontspec-font-list-default', 'TeX-date-format', and
'TeX-insert-braces-alist'. A new possible value
('show-all-optional-args') for 'TeX-insert-macro-default-style' was
added. The default value of 'TeX-source-correlate-method' has been
changed.
* 'biblatex' support was greatly expanded. If parsing is enabled,
AUCTeX looks at 'backend' option to decide whether to use Biber or
BibTeX. The 'LaTeX-biblatex-use-Biber' variable was changed to be
file local only and is no more customizable.
* With some LaTeX classes, the default environment suggested by
'LaTeX-environment' ('C-c C-e') when the current environment is
'document' was changed. With 'beamer' class the default
environment is 'frame', with 'letter' it is 'letter', with 'slides'
it is 'slide'.
* Brace pairing feature was enhanced in LaTeX documents. Support for
'\bigl', '\Bigl', '\biggl' and '\Biggl', the same as the one for
'\left', was added to 'TeX-insert-macro'. For example, 'C-c <RET>
bigl <RET> ( <RET>' inserts '\bigl(\bigr)'.
You can insert brace pair '()', '{}' and '[]' by typing a single
left brace if the new user option 'LaTeX-electric-left-right-brace'
is enabled.
Macros '\langle', '\lfloor' and '\lceil', which produce the left
part of the paired braces, are treated similarly as '(', '{' and
'[' during the course of 'TeX-insert-macro'.
* Support for dozens of LaTeX packages was added.
* Tabular-like environments (tabular, tabular*, tabularx, tabulary,
array, align, ...) are indented in a nicer and more informative
way when the column values of a table line are written across
multiple lines in the tex file.
* The suitable number of ampersands are inserted when you insert
array, tabular and tabular* environments with 'C-c C-e'. Similar
experience is obtained if you terminate rows in these environments
with 'C-c <LFD>'. It supplies line break macro '\\' and inserts
the suitable number of ampersands on the next line.
Similar supports are provided for various amsmath environments.
* Commands for narrowing to a group ('TeX-narrow-to-group') and to
LaTeX environments ('LaTeX-narrow-to-environment') were added.
* Now arbitrary options can be passed to the TeX processor on a per
file basis using the 'TeX-command-extra-options' option.
* Now 'C-c C-e document <RET>', in an empty document, prompts for
'\usepackage' macros in addition to '\documentclass'.
* 'TeX-add-style-hook' has now a third argument to tell AUCTeX for
which dialect (LaTeX, Texinfo or BibTeX) the style hook is
registers. Labelling style hook by dialect will avoid applying
them not in the right context.
* There have been lots of bug fixes and feature additions.
News in 11.87
=============
* AUCTeX now supports Biber in conjunction with biblatex in addition
to BibTeX.
* Each AUCTeX mode now has its own abbrev table. On Emacsen which
provide the possibility to inherit abbrevs from other tables, the
abbrevs from the Text mode abbrev table are available as well.
Newly defined abbrevs are written to the mode-specific tables,
though.
* The file 'tex-fptex.el' was removed.
* Forward/backward search for Evince has been improved. If Emacs is
compiled with DBUS support and a recent Evince version (3.x) is
installed, the communication goes over the desktop bus instead of
the command line, resulting in more accurate positioning of point
in Emacs and highlighting of the target paragraph in Evince.
* A problem where Ghostscript threw an /invalidfileaccess error when
running preview-latex was fixed.
* A lot of smaller fixes and additions have been made.
News in 11.86
=============
* Parsing of LaTeX output was improved. It is now less likely that
AUCTeX opens a non-existent file upon calling 'TeX-next-error'; a
problem for example encountered when using MiKTeX 2.8. In addition
quoted file names as emitted by MiKTeX are now supported.
* A new framework for the definition and selection of viewers was
implemented. If you have customizations regarding viewers you will
have to redo them in this new framework or reenable the old one.
See the section on viewers in the manual for details.
* Comprehensive editing support for PSTricks was added.
* Support for various LaTeX packages was added, e.g. 'tabularx',
'CJK', and 'hyperref'.
* An easy way to switch between TeX engines (PDFTeX, LuaTeX, XeTeX,
Omega) was added.
* Support for SyncTeX was added. This involves the command line
options for LaTeX and the viewer.
* Folding can now be customized to use macro arguments as replacement
text.
* 'preview.sty' now works with XeTeX.
* A lot of smaller and larger bugs have been squashed.
News in 11.85
=============
* Font locking has been improved significantly. It is now less prone
to color bleeding which could lead to high resource usage. In
addition it now includes information about LaTeX macro syntax and
can indicate syntactically incorrect macros in LaTeX mode.
* The license was updated to GPLv3.
* Support for the nomencl, flashcards and comment LaTeX packages as
well as the Icelandic language option of babel were added.
* Support for folding of math macros was added.
* Lots of minor bugs in features and documentation fixed.
News in 11.84
=============
* There have been problems with the '-without-texmf-dir' option to
'configure' when the value of '-with-kpathsea-sep' was set or
determined for an installation system with a default different from
that of the runtime system. 'with-kpathsea-sep' has been removed;
the setting is now usually determined at runtime.
Due to this and other problems, preview-latex in the released
XEmacs package failed under Windows or with anything except recent
21.5 XEmacsen.
* AUCTeX and preview-latex have been changed in order to accommodate
file names containing spaces. preview-latex now tolerates bad
PostScript code polluting the stack (like some Omega fonts).
* 'preview.sty' had in some cases failed to emit PostScript header
specials.
* Support for folding of comments was added.
* The 'polish' language option of the babel LaTeX package as well as
the polski LaTeX package are now supported. Most notably this
means that AUCTeX will help to insert quotation marks as defined by
polish.sty ('"`..."'') and polski.sty (',,...''').
* The TeX tool bar is now available and enabled by default in plain
TeX mode.
* Bug fix in the display of math subscripts and superscripts.
* Bug fix 'TeX-doc' for Emacs 21.
* There has been quite a number of other bug fixes to various
features and documentation across the board.
News in 11.83
=============
* The new function 'TeX-doc' provides easy access to documentation
about commands and packages or information related to TeX and
friends in general. It is accessible with the key binding 'C-c ?'
or the 'Find Documentation...' entry in the mode menus.
* You can now get rid of generated intermediate and output files by
means of the new 'Clean' and 'Clean All' entries in
'TeX-command-list' accessible with 'C-c C-c' or the Command menu.
* Support for forward search with PDF files was added. That means
you can jump to a place in the output file corresponding to the
position in the source file. Currently this only works if you use
the pdfsync LaTeX package and xpdf as your PDF viewer. The
accuracy is in the range of +/-1 page.
Adding support for this feature required the default value of the
variable 'TeX-output-view-style' to be changed. Please make sure
you either remove any customizations overriding the new default or
incorporate the changes into your customizations if you want to use
this feature.
* TeX error messages of the '-file-line-error' kind are now
understood in AUCTeX and preview-latex (parsers are still
separate).
* Bug fix in XyMTeX support.
* The LaTeX tool bar is now enabled by default.
News in 11.82
=============
* Support for the MinionPro LaTeX package was added.
* Warnings and underfull/overfull boxes are now being indicated in
the echo area after a LaTeX run, if the respective debugging
options are activated with 'TeX-toggle-debug-warnings' ('C-c C-t
C-w') or 'TeX-toggle-debug-bad-boxes' ('C-c C-t C-b'). In this
case 'TeX-next-error' will find these warnings in addition to
normal errors.
The key binding 'C-c C-w' for 'TeX-toggle-debug-bad-boxes' (which
was renamed from 'TeX-toggle-debug-boxes') now is deprecated.
* AUCTeX now can automatically insert a pair of braces after typing
<_> or <^> in math constructs if the new variable
'TeX-electric-sub-and-superscript' is set to a non-nil value.
* Some language-specific support for French was added. There now is
completion support for the commands provided by the 'frenchb' (and
'francais') options of the babel LaTeX package and easier input of
French quotation marks ('\\og ...\\fg') which can now be inserted
by typing <">.
* Completion support for options of some LaTeX packages was added.
* Already in version 11.81 the way to activate AUCTeX changed
substantially. This should now be done with '(load "auctex.el" nil
t t)' instead of the former '(require 'tex-site)'. Related to this
change 'tex-mik.el' does not load 'tex-site.el' anymore. That
means if you used only '(require 'tex-mik)' in order to activate
AUCTeX, you have to add '(load "auctex.el" nil t t)' before the
latter statement. More detailed information can be found in the
installation instructions (file INSTALL).
* Handling of verbatim constructs was consolidated across AUCTeX.
This resulted in the font-latex-specific variables
'font-latex-verb-like-commands', 'font-latex-verbatim-macros', and
'font-latex-verbatim-environments' being removed and the more
general variables 'LaTeX-verbatim-macros-with-delims',
'LaTeX-verbatim-macros-with-braces', and
'LaTeX-verbatim-environments' being added.
* The output of a BibTeX run is now checked for warnings and errors,
which are reported in the echo area.
* The aliases for 'font-latex-title-fontify' were removed. Use
'font-latex-fontify-sectioning' instead.
* The problem that Japanese macros where broken across lines was
fixed.
* Various bug fixes.
News in 11.81
=============
* 'LaTeX-mark-section' now marks subsections of a given section as
well. The former behavior is available via the prefix argument.
* preview-latex which was previously available separately became a
subsystem of AUCTeX. There is no documented provision for building
or installing preview-latex separately. It is still possible to
use and install AUCTeX without preview-latex, however.
* The installation procedures have been overhauled and now also
install startup files as part of the process (those had to be
copied manually previously). You are advised to remove previous
installations of AUCTeX and preview-latex before starting the
installation procedure. A standard installation from an unmodified
tarball no longer requires Makeinfo or Perl.
Also note that the way AUCTeX is supposed to be activated changed.
Instead of '(require 'tex-site)' you should now use '(load
"auctex.el" nil t t)'. While the former method may still work, the
new method has the advantage that you can deactivate a preactivated
AUCTeX with the statement '(unload-feature 'tex-site)' before any
of its modes have been used. This may be important especially for
site-wide installations.
* Support for the babel LaTeX package was added.
* Folding a buffer now ensures that the whole buffer is fontified
before the actual folding is carried out. If this results in
unbearably long execution times, you can fall back to the old
behavior of relying on stealth font locking to do this job in the
background by customizing the variable 'TeX-fold-force-fontify'.
* Folded content now reveals part of its original text in a tooltip
or the echo area when hovering with the mouse pointer over it.
* The language-specific insertion of quotation marks was generalized.
The variables 'LaTeX-german-open-quote',
'LaTeX-german-close-quote', 'LaTeX-german-quote-after-quote',
'LaTeX-italian-open-quote', 'LaTeX-italian-close-quote', and
'LaTeX-italian-quote-after-quote' are now obsolete. If you are not
satisfied with the default settings, you should customize
'TeX-quote-language-alist' instead.
* Similar to language-specific quote insertion, AUCTeX now helps you
with hyphens in different languages as well.
* Fill problems in Japanese text introduced in AUCTeX 11.55 were
fixed. AUCTeX tries not to break lines between 1-byte and 2-byte
chars. These features will work in Chinese text, too.
* The scaling factor of the fontification of sectioning commands can
now be customized using the variable
'font-latex-fontify-sectioning'. This variable was previously
called 'font-latex-title-fontify'; In this release we provide an
alias but this will disappear in one of the the next releases. The
faces for the sectioning commands are now called
'font-latex-sectioning-N-face' (N=0...5) instead of
'font-latex-title-N-face' (N=1...4). Analogously the names of the
variables holding the related keyword lists were changed from
'font-latex-title-N-keywords' to
'font-latex-sectioning-N-keywords'. Make sure to adjust your
customizations.
* Titles in beamer slides marked by the "\frametitle" command are
know displayed with the new face 'font-latex-slide-title-face'.
You can add macros to be highlighted with this face to
'font-latex-match-slide-title-keywords'.
* Of course a lot of bugs have been fixed.
News in 11.55
=============
* A bug was fixed which lead to the insertion of trailing whitespace
during filling. In particular extra spaces were added to sentence
endings at the end of lines. You can make this whitespace visible
by setting the variable 'show-trailing-whitespace' to 't'. If you
want to delete all trailing whitespace in a buffer, type 'M-x
delete-trailing-whitespace RET'.
* A bug was fixed which lead to a '*Compile-Log*' buffer popping up
when the first LaTeX file was loaded in an Emacs session.
* On some systems the presence of an outdated Emacspeak package lead
to the error message 'File mode specification error: (error
"Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size")'. Precautions
were added which prevent this error from happening. But
nevertheless, it is advised to upgrade or uninstall the outdated
Emacspeak package.
* The value of 'TeX-macro-global' is not determined during
configuration anymore but at load time of AUCTeX. Consequently the
associated configuration option '--with-tex-input-dirs' was
removed.
* Support for the LaTeX Japanese classes 'jsarticle' and 'jsbook' was
added.
News in 11.54
=============
* The parser (used e.g. for 'TeX-auto-generate-global') was extended
to recognize keywords common in LaTeX packages and classes, like
"\DeclareRobustCommand" or "\RequirePackage". Additionally a bug
was fixed which led to duplicate entries in AUCTeX style files.
* Folding can now be done for paragraphs and regions besides single
constructs and the whole buffer. With the new 'TeX-fold-dwim'
command content can both be hidden and shown with a single key
binding. In course of these changes new key bindings for unfolding
commands where introduced. The old bindings are still present but
will be phased out in future releases.
* Info files of the manual now have a .info extension.
* There is an experimental tool bar support now. It is not activated
by default. If you want to use it, add
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'LaTeX-install-toolbar)
to your init file.
* The manual now contains a new chapter "Quick Start". It explains
the main features and how to use them, and should be enough for a
new user to start using AUCTeX.
* A new section "Font Locking" was added to the manual which explains
syntax highlighting in AUCTeX and its customization. Together with
the sections related to folding and outlining, the section is part
of the new chapter "Display".
* Keywords for syntax highlighting of LaTeX constructs to be typeset
in bold, italic or typewriter fonts may now be customized. Besides
the built-in classes, new keyword classes may be added by
customizing the variable 'font-latex-user-keyword-classes'. The
customization options can be found in the customization group
'font-latex-keywords'.
* Verbatim content is now displayed with the 'fixed-pitch' face.
(GNU Emacs only)
* Syntax highlighting should not spill out of verbatim content
anymore. (GNU Emacs only)
* Verbatim commands like '\verb|...|' will not be broken anymore
during filling.
* You can customize the completion for graphic files with
'LaTeX-includegraphics-read-file'.
* Support for the LaTeX packages 'url', 'listings', 'jurabib' and
'csquotes' was added with regard to command completion and syntax
highlighting.
* Performance of fontification and filling was improved.
* Insertion of nodes in Texinfo mode now supports completion of
existing node names.
* Setting the variable 'LaTeX-float' to 'nil' now means that you will
not be prompted for the float position of figures and tables. You
can get the old behaviour of 'nil' by setting the variable to '""',
i.e. an empty string.
* The XEmacs-specific bug concerning 'overlays-at' was fixed.
* Lots of bug fixes.
News in 11.53
=============
* The LaTeX math menu can include Unicode characters if your Emacs
built supports it. See the variable 'LaTeX-math-menu-unicode'.
* Bug fixes for XEmacs.
* Completion for graphic files in the TeX search path has been added.
* 'start' is used for the viewer for MiKTeX and fpTeX.
* The variable 'TeX-fold-preserve-comments' can now be customized to
deactivate folding in comments.
News in 11.52
=============
* Installation and menus under XEmacs work again (maybe for the first
time).
* Fontification of subscripts and superscripts is now disabled when
the fontification engine is not able to support it properly.
* Bug fixes in the build process.
News in 11.51
=============
* PDFTeX and Source Special support did not work with ConTeXt, this
has been fixed. Similar for Source Special support under Windows.
* Omega support has been added.
* Bug fixes in the build process.
* 'TeX-fold' now supports folding of environments in Texinfo mode.
News in 11.50
=============
* The use of source specials when processing or viewing the document
can now be controlled with the new 'TeX-source-specials' minor mode
which can be toggled via an entry in the Command menu or the key
binding 'C-c C-t C-s'. If you have customized the variable
'TeX-command-list', you have to re-initialize it for this to work.
This means to open a customization buffer for the variable by
typing 'M-x customize-variable RET TeX-command-list RET', selecting
"Erase Customization" and do your customization again with the new
default.
* The content of the command menu now depends on the mode (plain TeX,
LaTeX, ConTeXt etc.). Any former customization of the variable
'TeX-command-list' has to be erased. Otherwise the command menu
and the customization will not work correctly.
* Support for hiding and auto-revealing macros, e.g. footnotes or
citations, and environments in a buffer was added.
* You can now control if indentation is done upon typing <RET> by
customizing the variable 'TeX-newline-function'.
* Limited support for 'doc.sty' and 'ltxdoc.cls' ('dtx' files) was
added. The new docTeX mode provides functionality for editing
documentation parts. This includes formatting (indenting and
filling), adding and completion of macros and environments while
staying in comments as well as syntax highlighting. (Please note
that the mode is not finished yet. For example syntax highlighting
does not work yet in XEmacs.)
* For macro completion in docTeX mode the AUCTeX style files
'doc.el', 'ltxdoc.el' and 'ltx-base.el' were included. The latter
provides general support for low-level LaTeX macros and may be used
with LaTeX class and style files as well. It is currently not
loaded automatically for those files.
* Support for ConTeXt with a separate ConTeXt mode is now included.
Macro definitions for completion are available in Dutch and
English.
* The filling and indentation code was overhauled and is now able to
format commented parts of the source syntactically correct. Newly
available functionality and customization options are explained in
the manual.
* Filling and indentation in XEmacs with preview-latex and activated
previews lead to the insertion of whitespace before multi-line
previews. AUCTeX now contains facilities to prevent this problem.
* If 'TeX-master' is set to 't', AUCTeX will now query for a master
file only when a new file is opened. Existing files will be left
alone. The new function 'TeX-master-file-ask' (bound to 'C-c _' is
provided for adding the variable manually.
* Sectioning commands are now shown in a larger font on display
devices which support such fontification. The variable
'font-latex-title-fontify' can be customized to restore the old
appearance, i.e. the usage of a different color instead of a
change in size.
* Support for 'alphanum.sty', 'beamer.cls', 'booktabs.sty',
'captcont.sty', 'emp.sty', 'paralist.sty', 'subfigure.sty' and
'units.sty'/'nicefrac.sty' was added. Credits go to the authors
mentioned in the respective AUCTeX style files.
* Inserting graphics with 'C-c RET \includegraphics RET' was
improved. See the variable 'LaTeX-includegraphics-options-alist'.
* If 'LaTeX-default-position' is 'nil', don't prompt for position
arguments in Tabular-like environments.
* Completion for available packages when using 'C-c RET \usepackage
RET' was improved on systems using the kpathsea library.
* The commenting functionality was fixed. The separate functions for
commenting and uncommenting were unified in one function for
paragraphs and regions respectively which do both.
* Syntax highlighting can be customized to fontify quotes delimited
by either >>German<< or <<French>> quotation marks by changing the
variable 'font-latex-quotes'.
* Certain TeX/LaTeX keywords for functions, references, variables and
warnings will now be fontified specially. You may add your own
keywords by customizing the variables
'font-latex-match-function-keywords',
'font-latex-match-reference-keywords',
'font-latex-match-variable-keywords' and
'font-latex-match-warning-keywords'.
* If you include the style files 'german' or 'ngerman' in a document
(directly or via the 'babel' package), you should now customize
'LaTeX-german-open-quote', 'LaTeX-german-close-quote' and
'LaTeX-german-quote-after-quote' instead of 'TeX-open-quote',
'TeX-close-quote' and 'TeX-quote-after-quote' if you want to
influence the type of quote insertion.
* Upon viewing an output file, the right viewer and command line
options for it are now determined automatically by looking at the
extension of the output file and certain options used in the source
file. The behavior can be adapted or extended respectively by
customizing the variable 'TeX-output-view-style'.
* You can control whether 'TeX-insert-macro' ('C-c RET') ask for all
optional arguments by customizing the variable
'TeX-insert-macro-default-style'.
* 'TeX-run-discard' is now able to completely detach a process that
it started.
* The build process was enhanced and is now based on 'autoconf'
making installing AUCTeX a mostly automatic process. See the files
'INSTALL' and 'INSTALL.windows' for details.
