Re: [AUCTeX-devel] problem with formatting and marking in auctex 11.88

Ikumi,

Thanks a lot for your reply! As Tassilo pointed out earlier, the real problem 
here is that I am sticking to a very old version of Emacs. The reasons for 
doing this are basically two:

1) Since I often write in Spanish, where we have all sorts of accents, I use 
x-symbol to be able to see the “filter” the accented characters, so that I see 
them on screen but they are saved to file as \’a, etc. Unfortunately, I haven’t 
been able to make x-symbol work with Emacs 23 and higher.

2) I have a fairly involved .emacs file, full of customizations (for example, I 
want my pdf files to open in Skim, I also want to use Skim for forward/backward 
searching, etc.). Unfortunately, many of the customizations I introduced don’t 
work with newer Emacsen, and I don’t have too much time to debug the .emacs 
file and clean it up. This is, of course, my fault. On the other hand, if 
somebody told me how to make x-symbol load under Emacs 24 (or what could I use 
to replace its functionality) I would probably try to switch!

Thanks again everybodu,

Artemio
