Have you bothered reading the referenced discussions? You don't appear to bother bringing anything new to it. Parsing a whole bunch of dependencies isn't the right default for someone not interested in AUCTeX or TeX. But we should probably make it a much stronger point in the manual that people interested enough in AUCTeX to be reading the manual are very likely people wanting to enable full document parsing. > Although I'm not at all professional, I do write little software as > part of my job, and the above is what I always do. Emacs is not just AUCTeX. Emacs is a general-purpose environment, and the defaults must not make it unusable as the go-to document editor/viewer for text file types you don't actually know anything about. > (Perhaps it would be hard to scan the LaTeX directory tree once for > index search?) > Just my two cents. Have you bothered looking at the dozens of dollars already spent on that issue? It is not a new discussion. If you want to change the outcome, you need to bring a substantially new argument. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ bug-auctex mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex
