Hi
I'm posting this in case it's useful to users of Windows Vista who now
need to use MSYS to install the latest AUCTeX. I downloaded the
precompiled Emacs 22.1 for windows together with AUCTeX 11.85. I used
MSYS to install AUCTeX on my PC at work (which runs Windows XP) without
a hitch. On my new PC at home (which runs Windows Vista), I had no
problems with Emacs 22.1 but when I came to install AUCTeX, configure
and make were fine, but make install didn't get very far without being
denied permission. I tried fiddling with permissions on various
programs, but nothing worked. Then I tried enabling the Administrator
account and installing from there: problem solved! (A bit of Googling
had produced this idea (among others which didn't work) and very
different ways to implement it. I chose the easiest.)
Ciaran Taylor.
