Hi,
I'm running Aquamacs 2.1.
I have a directory
/Users/agn/Library/texmf/tex/latex
that contains my personal style files.
In particular /Users/agn/Library/texmf/tex/latex/my
styles/math_abbrev.sty contains some macros to simplify inputting
maths
I was hoping to get AucTeX to recognize these macros so command
completion with M-TAB and C-c C-f C-m works on them.
Section 11.2 of the AucTeX manual (v11.86) seems to explain how to do
this, but I must be missing something.
It suggests I do
M-x TeX-auto-generate
When I do this, it suggests various directories; first
~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bst/ then (after uparrow) it offers individual
style files
~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/my styles/head_bolus.sty
I truncated this to
~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/
and then Emacs created a whole load of .el files (one for each .sty
files) in the directory
/Users/agn/Library/Application Support/Aquamacs Emacs/auctex/auto
So e.g. math_abbrev.el is
(TeX-add-style-hook "math_abbrev"
(lambda ()
(TeX-add-symbols
"ew"
"half"
"hhalf"
"quarter"
"qquarter"
"squarter"
"stwelfth"
"sthirtysixth"
"grad"
"gradh"
"bgamma")))
So far, very good... However, when I try e.g.
\e M-TAB, ew doesn't appear on the list of completions.
What have I missed?
thanks, George Nurser.
NB
C-h v TeX-macro-private =>
TeX-macro-private is a variable defined in `tex.el'.
Its value is
("/Users/agn/Library/texmf/bibtex/bst/" "/Users/agn/Library/texmf/tex/")
C-h TeX-auto-private =>
TeX-auto-private is a variable defined in `tex.el'.
Its value is
("/Users/agn/Library/Application Support/Aquamacs Emacs/auctex/auto")
