Re: File variables in tex-site.el

[Dr. F.C.Caner]

Hello all. First, thanks for your interest.

I am using WindowsXP. Apparently I did not have ddeclient.exe, so I
first downloaded it, and placed it under c:/EmacsPlugins/ddeclient.
Now when I invoke PdfLaTeX, it closes all the documents in the Acrobat
Reader before compiling the LaTeX file. This is actually a big
convenience. However, to solve the problem completely, Emacs must
launch the reader right after PdfLaTeX'ing the document. Can this be
done?

Thanks again and best,

FCC.
