(in Hungarian) LaTeX exited abnormally with code 1 at Thu Oct 25 15:57:56 Does the command work directly in cmd.exe? Yes. When in the directory, where proba.tex resides latex "\nonstopmode\input{proba.tex}" and cmd.exe /c latex "\nonstopmode\input{proba.tex}" also works perfectly from the command shell. `TeX-shell' is a variable declared in Lisp. -- loaded from "tex-buf" Value: "C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\cmd.exe" Documentation: Name of shell used to parse TeX commands. `TeX-shell-command-option' is a variable declared in Lisp. -- loaded from "tex-buf" Value: "/c" Documentation: Shell argument indicating that next argument is the command. That looks okay, but I am currently not running Windows, so I cannot verify it. If you do `M-x shell RET' you should get the Windows prompt as a shell. Does the latex command above work in that shell? Maybe I am doing something wrong, but after M-x shell RET the shell window came up immediately with the message "Process cmd.exe finished", and there was no process in the window, so I couldn't try to run the latex command. Unless you are a die-hard XEmacs user you might also check out the pre-compiled Emacs version downloadable from the AUCTeX site. I tried Xemacs first because I wanted to use R, Sweave and LaTeX together, and for a lamer like me, Xemacs seemed to be more tailor-made. I am sure it is possible to customize GNU Emacs, but I don't (yet) know Lisp, so it would take a whole lot of time. However, I installed the Emacs-AUCTeX bundle and it works perfectly, but I would still be happy if I could make XEmacs work. Thanks!
