Not quite.
Getting auctex-mode defined modes to become operational feels more
complex than it needs to be -- and I've never understood (30+ years and
counting) as to why Emacs hasn't yet just made Auctex the default Tex
editing package for emacs; I note that we have adopted far newer
packages as the default in more recent times.
Many years ago I made the following my default first line in .tex files:
% foo.tex: -*- mode: LaTeX -*-
and it works as in gets the mode from auctex -- but asking
describe-function about the mode still shows the one from the emacs
install, not from auctex.
latex-mode is defaliased to
LaTeX-mode in tex-mode.el
Library is file
/usr/local/share/emacs/29.0.50/lisp/textmodes/tex-mode.elc
latex-mode is an autoloaded interactive compiled Lisp function in
¡®tex-mode.el¡¯.
(latex-mode)
Major mode for editing files of input for LaTeX.
Makes $ and } display the characters they match.
Makes " insert `` when it seems to be the beginning of a quotation,
and '' when it appears to be the end; it inserts " only after a \.
Use M-x tex-region to run LaTeX on the current region, plus the preamble
copied from the top of the file (containing \documentstyle, etc.),
running LaTeX under a special subshell. M-x tex-buffer does the whole buffer.
M-x tex-file saves the buffer and then processes the file.
M-x tex-print prints the .dvi file made by any of these.
M-x tex-view previews the .dvi file made by any of these.
M-x tex-bibtex-file runs bibtex on the file of the current buffer.
Use M-x tex-validate-buffer to check buffer for paragraphs containing
mismatched $¡¯s or braces.
Special commands:
Key Binding
C-j tex-handle-newline
" tex-insert-quote
C-<return> tex-feed-input
C-c C-s latex-split-block
M-RET latex-insert-item
C-c C-b tex-buffer
C-c C-c tex-compile
C-c C-e latex-close-block
C-c C-f tex-file
C-c TAB tex-bibtex-file
C-c C-k tex-kill-job
C-c C-l tex-recenter-output-buffer
C-c RET tex-feed-input
C-c C-o latex-insert-block
C-c C-p tex-print
C-c C-q tex-show-print-queue
C-c C-r tex-region
C-c C-t latex-insert-block
C-c C-u tex-goto-last-unclosed-latex-block
C-c C-v tex-view
C-c / latex-close-block
C-c ] latex-close-block
C-c { tex-insert-braces
C-c } up-list
C-M-i ispell-complete-word
Mode variables:
latex-run-command
Command string used by M-x tex-region or M-x tex-buffer.
tex-directory
Directory in which to create temporary files for LaTeX jobs
run by M-x tex-region or M-x tex-buffer.
tex-dvi-print-command
Command string used by M-x tex-print to print a .dvi file.
tex-alt-dvi-print-command
Alternative command string used by M-x tex-print (when given a prefix
argument) to print a .dvi file.
tex-dvi-view-command
Command string used by M-x tex-view to preview a .dvi file.
tex-show-queue-command
Command string used by M-x tex-show-print-queue to show the print
queue that M-x tex-print put your job on.
Entering Latex mode runs the hook ¡®text-mode-hook¡¯, then
¡®tex-mode-hook¡¯, and finally ¡®latex-mode-hook¡¯. When the special
subshell is initiated, ¡®tex-shell-hook¡¯ is run.
This function has :override advice: ¡®TeX-latex-mode¡¯.
Parent mode: ¡®tex-mode¡¯.
Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 18.
