You are right. I didn't realize that AUCTeX is difficult to deactivate. However, putting this at the end of my init file --- after the AUCTeX customization --- and restarting Emacs does deactivate AUCTeX in my system: (delete 'tex-site features) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.tex\\'" . tex-mode)) (autoload 'tex-mode "tex-mode" "Use standard `tex-mode.el' instead of AUCTeX." t nil) > However, in this case it makes much more sense to figure out what > the problem is. I like and use AUCTeX, and agree with you. I suggested standard `tex-mode.el' only because the OP wanted a "simple" mode. Raghavendra. -- N.
