What was the rationale behind the deprecation/removal? Does any other editor support that? If yes, it /might/ be a good idea to restore this. (BTW, TeXworks - which is kind of "official" TeX editor nowadays - supports its own set: http://www.texdev.net/2011/03/24/texworks-magic-comments/ . It /might/ be a good idea to support those, too.) > Bye, > Mosè Best, -- Marcin Borkowski http://octd.wmi.amu.edu.pl/en/Marcin_Borkowski Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science Adam Mickiewicz University _______________________________________________ auctex-devel mailing list auctex-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex-devel
