@item
Better handling of @samp{*TeX background*} buffer. Suggested by John
Interrante @samp{<interran@@uluru.Stanford.EDU>}.
@item
Parser did not recognise the use of @samp{\def} to create @LaTeX{}
environments. Reported by Frederic Devernay
@samp{<Frederic.Devernay@@sophia.inria.fr>}.
@item
Minor cleanup in some error messages.
@item
Fixed bug in @code{TeX-comment-paragraph} when called with a negative
argument. Reported by Markus Kramer @samp{<kramer@@inf.fu-berlin.de>}.
@item
Don't move point in master file when running a command on the region in
an included file. Thanks to Karl Wilhelm Langenberger
@samp{<wlang@@rs6000.mri.akh-wien.ac.at>} for the patch.
@item
@code{LaTeX-math-mode} no longer works on Emacs 18 or older Lucid
versions. This change allowed me to unbundle @file{min-map.el}.
@item
Made @kbd{C-c C-e} more robust, especially when applied on an empty
active region. Reported by Andrew Senior @samp{<aws@@eng.cam.ac.uk>}.
@item
@kbd{C-c C-m section RET} and @kbd{M-@key{tab}} should work now in
@TeX{}info mode. @kbd{C-c C-b} and @kbd{C-c C-r} removed, since they
did not work. Reported by Karl Eichwalder

Renamed @file{auc-tex.el} to @file{auc-old.el} to make it less likely
that new users load it by mistake.
@item
Changed name of @file{easymenu.el} to @file{auc-menu.el} to avoid
conflict with RMS's version. Updated it to handle the Lucid
@code{:keys} keyword argument. Defines a popup menu for both FSF and
Lucid emacs, although it is only installed in Lucid Emacs. Added David
Aspinall's @samp{<da@@dcs.edinburgh.ac.uk>} patch to handle an empty
menu bar under Lucid Emacs. The interface is still a superset of
@file{easymenu.el}. This version should no longer prevent the sharing
of byte compiled files between FSF and Lucid emacs.
@item
Marking a section or environment now highlight it in Lucid Emacs. It
already worked in GNU Emacs. Thanks to Andreas Ernst
@samp{ernst_a@@maths.uwa.edu.au}.

Fixed problem with @file{filladapt} defeating @LaTeX{} mode's own
indentation algorithm. Thanks to Piet van Oostrum
@samp{<piet@@cs.ruu.nl>}.
@item
Made environments and sections selectable from the menu bar.
@item
Support Emacs comment conventions. Comments starting with a single
@samp{%} are indented at @code{comment-column}. Comments starting with
@samp{%%%} are indented at column 0. Comments starting with
@samp{%%} are indented like ordinary text. You can set the variables
@code{LaTeX-right-comment-regexp} and @code{LaTeX-left-comment-regexp}
to nil to disable this. See also @code{LaTeX-ignore-comment-regexp}.
Rewrote it from Christoph Wedler @samp{<wedler@@fmi.uni-passau.de>} from
original code.
@item
@key{tab} and @key{lfd} will not indent code in @samp{verbatim}
environment if you set @code{LaTeX-indent-environment-check} to non-nil.
This was also first implemented by Christoph Wedler
@samp{<wedler@@fmi.uni-passau.de>}.
@item
You can now get get custom indentation for various environments. See
@code{LaTeX-indent-environment-list}.
@item
@kbd{C-c C-m left @key{ret}} new automatically inserts a matching
@samp{\right}. See variables @code{TeX-left-right-braces},
@code{TeX-braces-default-association}, and
@code{TeX-braces-user-association}. This feature was suggested by Jesse
@samp{<jes@@math.msu.edu>} and implemented by Berwin Turlach
@samp{<berwin@@core.ucl.ac.be>}.
@item
Don't automatically display the compilation buffer unless
@code{TeX-show-compilation} in non-nil. Suggested by Stefan Schoef
@samp{Stefan.Schoef@@arbi.informatik.uni-oldenburg.de}.
@item
Bundled @file{ltx-help.el}. Press @kbd{C-h C-l} to get the
documentation for a LaTeX command.
@item
Fixed indentation of @samp{\left} and @samp{\right}. Thanks to
Christoph Wedler @samp{<wedler@@fmi.uni-passau.de>}.
@item
Installation procedure changed. @file{tex-site.el} is now intended to
survive AUC @TeX{} upgraded. The distribution version only contains
autoloads (eliminating the need for @file{tex-load.el} , the
customization variables are moved to @file{tex.el}. You should copy
those variables you need to customize from @file{tex.el} to
@file{tex-site.el}.
@item
Made it possible to use absolute paths when including bibliographies or
style files.
@item
Fixed problem with parsing errors after running @LaTeX{} on the region
from the menu. Thanks to Peter Barth @samp{<barth@@mpi-sb.mpg.de>} for
finding this one.
@item
The file @file{doc/ref-card.texi} has been renamed to
@file{doc/tex-ref.texi} to avoid confusion with the reference card for
GNU Emacs. Suggested by Michelangelo Grigni @samp{<mic@@cs.ucsd.edu>}.
@item
The @file{README}, @file{CHANGES} and @file{INSTALLATION} files are now
generated from chapters of this manual, to ensure they stay in sync.
@item
@kbd{M-@key{tab}} will now complete some macro arguments in addition to
macro names. In particular, if you press @kbd{M-@key{tab}} after
@samp{\cite@{} or @samp{\ref@{} you will get completion for bibitems and
labels, respectively.
@item
Merged a number of files. The major files are now @file{tex.el} for
plain @TeX{} and common support, @file{tex-buf.el} for running external
commands, and @file{latex.el} for @LaTeX{} support.
@item
Unbundled @file{outln-18.el}. Users of Emacs 18 or Lucid Emacs 19.9 or
earlier must get @file{outln-18.el} and install it as @file{outline.el}
if they want the outline commands to work.
@item
No longer bind @kbd{C-c @key{tab}} to @code{TeX-complete-symbol}. Use
@kbd{M-@key{tab}} instead.
@item
Cleaned up the parser and parameterizedd it. Now you can add now types
of information to be maintained by the parser simply by calling
@code{TeX-auto-add-type}. You still need to install the regexps with
@code{TeX-auto-add-regexp}.
@item
Disable the automatic insertion of empty braces after macros with no
arguments in @code{LaTeX-math-mode}. Added a variable
@code{TeX-insert-braces} to disable it everywhere.

region if the region is active.
@item
Fixed @kbd{C-u C-c C-e} to handle environments ending with a star
(@samp{*}). Reported by Berwin Turlach
@samp{<berwin@@core.ucl.ac.be>}.
@item
Don't use @code{with-output-to-temp-buffer} for compilation buffer.

@item
New function @code{TeX-command-buffer} (@kbd{C-c C-b}) to run a command
on the (visible part of) the current buffer. Requested by several
people.
@item
Bundled the latest @file{reporter.el}, added
@code{TeX-submit-bug-report} to menus.

character sets.
@item
Created workaround for bug in the regexp handler in some Emacs 18
versions and older versions of Lucid Emacs. The workaround

Lucid Emacs earlier than version 19.9.
@item
@file{powerkey.el} is removed since the functionality is integrated in

@item
@kbd{C-u "} now inserts four literal @samp{"}, not just one. To insert

@item
@code{LaTeX-dead-mode} removed. Read the file `ISO-TEX' for alternative
solutions.
@item
All minor modes unbundled. You can find them from ftp at
@samp{ftp.iesd.auc.dk} in the directory @file{/pub/emacs-lisp}. Removed
information about minor modes from this document.
@item
New hooks for changing ispell directory, see @file{tex-site.el} for
details.
@item
@LaTeX{}2e mode now supported. Insert
@lisp
(setq TeX-default-mode 'latex2e-mode)
@end lisp
in your @file{.emacs} file to get documentclass instead of documentstyle
per default. The parser recognizes documentclass, usepackage, and
newcommand with a default argument. There are also templates for all of
them.
@item
Added Jakob Schiotz's @samp{<schiotz@@fysik.dth.dk>} help file for
installing AUC @TeX{} on OEMACS. It will probably also be of interest
for DEMACS users.

@item
Use abbreviated file name for @TeX{} output buffers in Emacs 19. Thanks

Now get keyboard accelerators on all menus rather than only AUC @TeX{}
menus, thanks to the @file{powerkey.el} file by Lars Lindberg
@samp{<lli@@sypro.cap.se>}.
@item
Added @code{TeX-electric-macro} for faster completion of @TeX{} macros.
@xref{Completion}.
@item
Comparing printer names are now case incentive. Thanks to Richard
Stanton @samp{<stanton@@haas.berkeley.edu>}.
@item
Default shell fixed for OS/2. Thanks to Richard Stanton
@samp{<stanton@@haas.berkeley.edu>}.
@item
Added functions to hide (@code{LaTeX-hide-environment}) and show
(@code{LaTeX-show-environment}) the current environment.
@item
@kbd{C-u C-c C-e} will now modify the current environment instead of
inserting a new environment. This is like the optional argument to the
font commands.
@item
Added nabla to LaTeX Math Mode. Suggested by Bill Reynolds
@samp{<bill@@goshawk.lanl.gov>}.
@item
Added commands for running @TeX{} and @LaTeX{} interactively. Thanks to
David Carlisle @samp{<carlisle@@computer-science.manchester.ac.uk>}.
@item
The external commands will now insert there output @emph{before} point
in the output buffers. This allows you to follow the progress by
putting point at the end of the file. Suggested by Jak Kirman
@samp{<jak@@cs.brown.edu>}.
@item
When invoking an external command from a menu, the document will be
automatically saved.
@item
There are now a printer menu for emacs 19.
@item
Redesigned dependency checking. Now only checks dependencies for files
loaded in the current emacs session. This is much faster, but will not
catch files that are edited outside this emacs session, or files edited
in killed buffers. @strong{@code{TeX-check-path} must at least contain
@file{.} for saving to work}. If you have set @samp{TeX-check-path}
in your @file{.emacs} file, remove it. The default value is fast enough
now.
@item
New variable @code{TeX-save-query} control if AUC @TeX{} will query you
for each modified buffer when you save the document. Set it to nil to
get rid of these questions. Setting this variable also affect the
automatic saving of the document that happens each time you start an
external command.
@item
New command @code{TeX-save-document} will save all files in the current
document, i.e. the document associated with the current buffer.
@item
Cleaned up all minor modes, also made them use @file{min-map.el} or
@file{min-mode.el} instead of @file{min-bind.el}.
@item
Cleaned up release management.
@item
AUC TeX will not longer be confused when you rewrite a file under a new
name.
@item
Lots of code cleanup, involving reformatting the source and renaming all
@samp{-hook} variables and functions to conform with the Emacs 19
guidelines.
@item
Can now parse Japanese characters in labels and macros when you use
Japanese @TeX{}. Thanks to Shinji Kobayashi
@samp{<koba@@flab.fujitsu.co.jp>}.
@item
Made it safe to quit when AUC @TeX{} asks for the name of the master
file. It will simply assume the file itself is the master, and continue
without inserting any file local variables.
@item
Support for @code{epsf} and @code{psfig} style files. Thanks to Marc
Gemis @samp{<makke@@wins.uia.ac.be>}.
@item
Support for @LaTeX{}info. Thanks to Marc Gemis
@samp{<makke@@wins.uia.ac.be>}.
@item
Only examine the first 10000 bytes to find out what @TeX{} mode to use.
@item
Added @code{TeX-submit-bug-report} command to submit bug reports. It
uses the @file{reporter.el} distributed with SuperCite, so it may not be
available in some Emacs 18 installations.
@item
Speeded up parsing significantly by using a simpler regexp.
@item
Added variable @code{TeX-auto-untabify}. Set it to nil to prevent
untabifying the buffer when it is saved. Several people wanted this.
@item
Changed defaults to @emph{not} do any automatic parsing, nor prompt for
a master file. @xref{Parsing Files}, @ref{Multifile}, for information
about how ot correct this. In short, insert the following in your
@file{.emacs} file.
@lisp
(setq TeX-auto-save t)
(setq TeX-parse-self t)
(setq-default TeX-master nil)
@end lisp
@item
Some grammatical fixes to the @file{PROBLEMS} file. Thanks to Lawrence
R. Dodd @samp{<dodd@@roebling.poly.edu>}.
@item
No longer install a separate @code{outline-minor-mode} by default, as
the FSF Emacs 19.19 @code{outline-minor-mode} is adequate. The included
file @file{outln-18.el} emulates the FSF Emacs 19.19 mode under Emacs 18.
The FSF Emacs 19.19 @code{outline-minor-mode} use the @kbd{C-c} prefix
instead of @kbd{C-c C-o} by default, and does not bind as many keys as
the @code{outline-minor-mode} distributed with earlier versions of AUC
@TeX{} did. You can get the keybindings back together with other
goodies by inserting
@example
(require 'out-xtra)
@end example
in your @file{.emacs} file. @file{out-xtra.el} will probably be
unbundled from AUC @TeX{} in the future.
@item
Some fixes to AmS-@TeX{} mode by Ulf Juergens
@samp{<ulf@@mathematik.uni-bielefeld.de>}.

First cut on a @TeX{}info mode.
@item
More strict about parsing @samp{\bibitem}'s and Bib@TeX{} entries.

New keymap.
The keymap has been changed in order to make it more intuitive to new
users, and because the old bindings did not work well with the new
buffer manipulation commands in tex-buf.el. To use the new bindings,
load @file{tex-init.el} instead of @file{auc-tex.el}.
The file @file{auc-tex.el} is still available and implements the old
keybindings on top of the new code.
Print out the reference card (@file{doc/tex-ref.tex}) to see the new
bindings.
@item
Completely redesigned the buffer handling.
No part of the interface or the customization variables remain the same,
unless you use the compatibility functions in @file{auc-tex.el}. In
that case the interactive commands remain similar in spirit, but the
customization interface is still changed.
The file @file{tex-buf.el} has been completely rewritten, and there are
major cleanup in @file{tex-dbg.el}, however the basic functionality
remains the same in this file. The code for both @file{tex-buf.el} and
@file{tex-dbg.el} should be much simpler now and easier to extent.
@file{auc-tex.el} and @file{tex-site.el} was updated to support the new
interface. I actually believe the moral equivalent to @code{TeX-region}
to work now @t{:-)}, at least I understand the code now.
The two major functions are now @code{TeX-command-master} and
@code{TeX-command-region}. Each function will prompt you for the
command to execute. AUC @TeX{} will make an educated guess on what
command you want to run, and make that the default. The available
commands are defined in the variable @code{TeX-command-list}.
@code{TeX-command-master} will run the specified command on the buffers
master file. You can have one command running for each master file.
@code{TeX-command-region} will run the specified command on the current
region, getting the header on trailer from the master file.
You can have exactly one region command running, independent on how many
master file commands that are running. Commands that operate on the
active process (like @code{TeX-next-error}) will chose the process
associated with buffers master file, unless the last region process is
more recent than all master file processes.
AUC @TeX{} now insist on knowing the master file for a buffer. If you
do not specify it in the file variable section, and it is not obviously
a master file itself, it will ask you. It will also add the master file
name to the file variables, unless you disable this feature by setting
@code{TeX-add-local} to nil. Furthermore, it will convert @samp{%%
Master:} lines to file variables, unless you disable it by setting
@code{TeX-convert-master} to nil.
@vindex TeX-convert-master
Functionality removed (for now, it might appear again latter) include
all other functions to start a command (e.g. @code{LaTeX-BibTeX}), and
alternative ways to specify headers and trailers. The only place to get
the header and trailer is from the master file (I can easily change
that, if anyone have such needs).
@item
Style specific code isolated.
You can now add style specific information to AUC TeX by writing a
style file somewhere in TeX-style-path.
The main code is now organized around this principle.
@item
Automatically generate style files.
AUC @TeX{} can now automatically extract information from a @TeX{} file,
and will do this when you save a buffer.
@item
Sli@TeX{} mode.
Just like @LaTeX{} mode, except that the default command to format run
on the buffer is @samp{slitex}.
@item
@code{LaTeX-section} completely general.
Rewrote @file{ltx-sec.el}.
@itemize @minus
@item
Sectioning level, toc, and title queries can be individually turned off.

@item
@code{TeX-insert-macro} much smarter.
It will now prompt for the symbol with completions, and for many symbols
it will also prompt for each argument. There are also completion on
some of the arguments.
@item
Fixed center in figure environment.
Thanks to Thomas Koenig @samp{<ig25@@rz.uni-karlsruhe.de>}.
@item
Changed @code{\M-} to @code{\e} in all keybindings in order to better
support 8-bit input on some GNU Emacs. Thanks to Peter Dalgaard
@samp{<pd@@kubism.ku.dk>}.
Please, implementors of 8-bit input extensions to GNU Emacs.
@code{\M-x} does @emph{not} means @dfn{@kbd{x} with the 8-bit set}. It
means @dfn{pressing @kbd{x} while holding down the @key{meta} key}.
Some systems (such as X11) are able to tell the different. Thus, even
if you implement 256 byte keymaps, @code{\M-x} should still expand
@code{meta-prefix-char} followed by an @kbd{x} in the keymap. This
allows you to distinguish pressing @kbd{x} while holding down the
@key{meta} key from entering a literal 8-bit character.
@item
Made the outline commands aware of the document style.
That is, if the document style is @samp{article}, @samp{\section} will
be one level below the @samp{\documentstyle}, while if the style is
@samp{book}, @samp{\section} will be three levels below
@samp{\documentstyle}. This will make @code{show-children} work better
at the top level.
@item
The makefiles are closer to GNU coding standard.
They now understand `prefix' and some other macros.
@item
Added hooks to be run after list of environments or list of completion
names are updated, and also added a hook to be called after each file
has been loaded. Thanks to Piet van Oostrum @samp{<piet@@cs.ruu.nl>}.
@item
Added @samp{*} to lot of @code{(interactive)} declarations.
@item
The outline commands are now always accessible from @LaTeX{} mode.
@item
Generalized the keyboard remapping and double modes.
These are found in the file @file{min-key.el}.
@item
Smart Comments.
Not really, but there are now two comment functions which use their
arguments to determine what to do, instead of four functions ignoring
their arguments.
@item
Add outline headers.
It is now possible to add extra outline headers, by setting the variable
@code{TeX-outline-extra}.
@item
Smart quotes even smarter.
If you press @kbd{"} twice, it will insert an real double quote instead
of two (or four) single quotes. This is consistent with how remapping
in @file{min-key.el} is done.
@item
Automatically untabify buffer when you save it.
Hands up, everyone who have produced a `last revision' paper containing
an unreadable list of data in the back, because @TeX{} does not
understands tabs.
@item
Call show-all when you change major mode.
Thanks to Inge Frick's @samp{<inge@@nada.kth.se>} @file{kill-fix.el}
enhancement, outline minor mode can now guarantee that all text is shown
when you leave the minor mode, even if you leave the minor mode by
changing the major mode.
@item
Updated documentation for 7.0.
Also added key, variable, function, and concept indexes, as well as this
history section and a new chapter on multifile documents
(@pxref{Multifile}).@refill

@node Ancient History
@comment node-name, next, previous, up
@section Ancient History
The origin of AUC @TeX{} is @file{tex-mode.el} from Emacs 16. Lars
Peter Fischer @samp{<fischer@@iesd.auc.dk>} wrote the first functions to
insert font macros and Danish characters back in 1986. Per Abrahamsen
@samp{<abraham@@iesd.auc.dk>} wrote the functions to insert environments
and sections, to indent the text, and the outline minor mode in 1987.
Kresten Krab Thorup @samp{<krab@@iesd.auc.dk>} wrote the buffer handling
and debugging functions, the macro completion, and much more, including
much improved indentation and text formatting functions. He also made
the first public release in 1991, and was the main author and
coordinator of every release up to and including 6.0.
Thanks should also go to all the people who have been a great help
developing the AUC @TeX{} system. Especially all the people on the
@samp{auc-tex} mailing list, who have been very helpful commenting and
pointing out weak points and errors.
