An integrated environment for editing TeX and friends documents

AUCTeX is a comprehensive customizable integrated environment for writing input files for TeX/LaTeX/ConTeXt/Texinfo using Emacs.

It lets you process your source files by running TeX and related tools (such as output filters, post processors for generating indices and bibliographies, and viewers) from inside Emacs. AUCTeX lets you browse through the errors TeX reported, while it moves the cursor directly to the reported error, and displays some documentation for that particular error. This will even work when the document is spread over several files.

One component of AUCTeX that LaTeX users will find attractive is preview-latex, a combination of folding and in-source previewing that provides true "What You See Is What You Get" experience in your sourcebuffer, while letting you retain full control. preview-latex comes with its own manual.

AUCTeX automatically indents your `LaTeX-source', not only as you write it---you can also let it indent and format an entire document. It has a special outline feature, which can greatly help you `getting an overview' of a document.

Apart from these special features, AUCTeX provides a large range of handy Emacs macros, which in several different ways can help you write your documents fast and painlessly.

All features of AUCTeX are documented using the GNU Emacs online documentation system. That is, documentation for any command is just a key click away!

AUCTeX is written entirely in Emacs-Lisp, and hence you can easily add new features for your own needs. It has become recently a GNU project. AUCTeX is distributed under the `GNU General Public License Version 2'.

Currently XEmacs ships with its own AUCTeX, so this package should only be used with GNU/Emacs. (I.e., you don't need to install this package if your site uses only XEmacs.)
