bug#21517: 11.88.8; Error parsing wrong in Plain TeX mode
Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.
The following Plain TeX source:
\underline{A}%
\bye
generates as expected errors in the log:

I am reporting this today, but noticed it
since a long time (I don't know since when)
Enabled minor modes: Auto-Composition Auto-Compression Auto-Encryption
Auto-Fill Blink-Cursor Column-Number Delete-Selection File-Name-Shadow
Font-Lock Global-Font-Lock Line-Number Mac-Mouse-Wheel Menu-Bar Shell-Dirtrack
Tex-Pdf Tool-Bar Tooltip Transient-Mark
(Information about these minor modes follows the major mode info.)
TeX/P mode defined in `tex-mode.el':
:override advice: `TeX-plain-tex-mode'
Is this actually the AUCTeX plain TeX mode ?
I activated the mode via C-cC-n after entering in the buffer the two
lines

Ah, there's been a bug in `TeX-TeX-sentinel' which invoked error parsing
only if there were no errors. ;-)
I think it is fixed now. Could you please check and report back?

That's also fixed now, well, even before the actual error.

Could you please check and report back? Yes, I applied the patch to tex-buf.el from the latest commit and error parsing seems to function as expected in TeX-mode C-c ` is OK, and Command->Error Overview also this is at least on my \underline example, but as I never do any error in TeX coding if not intentionally, it might be a very long time before I can confirm more generally, though ;-) Thanks for the quick fix, Best, Jean-François ___ bug-auctex mailing list bug-auctex@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex

(http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=auctex.git;a=commitdiff;h=1a5d447) made opening plain TeX files pretty uncomfortable, still was never reported before the fix, which came 2.5 years after the bug had been introduced and 5 months after previous stable version.

There must be tons of features I don't use (exactly like with Emacs globally: every few years I want to learn more, I do, then I forget and I am back to beginner level; finally the only truly important moments were when I did for the very first time the tutorial and learned C-xC-s, C-x-C-c. Another big moment must have been years later when I started having an Emacs on a Mac OS, and understood that say C-M-s (whatever it does) was to be keyed in Escape then a fraction of a second later CTRL-s. Those were important steps because I did them only once and I recalled the lesson; in later years though everything I ever learn is quickly completely forgotten. End of long digression) For example there must be some automatic completion but I just never use such things. Thus, when some features go awry, I can certainly stay years without becoming aware. Many years back my relation with AUCTeX was more like a fight: for example how to get it NOT to modify a .tex source file by the automatic addition of local file variables at the end when opening it in a buffer. As a novice, it took me quite a while to identify the proper magic, what was it, let's dig in my .emacs, ah yes (setq TeX-one-master '"\"\"") that was quite a feat getting the suitable escaping and quotes back then, I was so young and tender. These must have been before the Google arose. And naturally I didn't have internet at home. Then I developed a bad relationship with the install script of the release tarballs, which had IIRC a tendency to put things in my /usr/local (or somewhere else) that I didn't want. Anyway, that's all past, gone and forgotten. I use ELPA, and that's it. And I am very glad ! Coming back with more focus on the topic, I don't do much typesetting with Plain TeX these days, but use it when I need to quickly check some macros (obviously not from LaTeX packages). Bug reporting is not always such a nice experience, contrarily to what I enjoy with Tassilo and yourself since some time now. Sometimes one has a situation which other people don't understand because they are not on the same system. Thus I had a very hard time getting the TeX Live people understand their kpsewhich has a major speed problem on Mac OS X under certain circumstances. Thus I take this opportunity to thank you Mosè, and Tassilo for all your responsiveness in handling user reports, bye Jean-François ___ bug-auctex mailing list bug-auctex@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex

More like a fraction of an hour. The timing is only critical on serial line ASCII terminals where the cursor keys create some sequence starting with ESC. In that case only, you should _not_ followup an ESC immediately with a (or so) if you wanted to key in M-a but instead wait a tiny moment (read-key-delay I think). -- David Kastrup ___ bug-auctex mailing list bug-auctex@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex
