Can it be that the value of the %HOME% environment variable in the dos 
window differs from the value of the $HOME environment variable in the 
cygwin bash window? If so, then you have two separate .emacs files with 
different entries.

HTH,

Actually it turned out to be runemacs.exe. If I start emacs from the DOS 
window with "start emacs --load=.emacs" instead of "runemacs --load=.emacs" 
I get auctex instead of Tex mode. (The loaded .emacs in turn loads the site 
wide .emacs.)

Think I found the difference. If I load emacs from a DOS window, tex is the 
major mode for .tex files. If I load it from a Cygwin bash window, auctex 
is the major mode. I'm not sure but, now that I know, I'm not sure I care 
*8=>).

That's what I thought as well. My .emacs contains the following.
         ;; load Auc Tex
          (require 'tex-site)
          (setq TeX-auto-save t)
          (setq TeX-parse-self t)
          (setq-default TeX-master nil)

site-lips/tex-site.el contains the following.
         (defvar TeX-lisp-directory "c:/progra~1/emacs/site-lisp/auctex/"
           "*The directory where the AUC TeX lisp files are located.")

         ;;; Autoloads:

         (add-to-list 'load-path TeX-lisp-directory)


The beginning of my load-path variable is 
("c:/progra~1/emacs/site-lisp/auctex/" nil.

The following is in the *messages* buffer when loading, even without any 
".tex" files.
         eval-buffer: Symbol's value as variable is void: latex-mode-hook

So the question still is what am I doing that prevents auctex from loading 
for LaTeX files?

I guess AUCTeX *is* your "super LaTeX-mode".  See the instructions in
the manual (info "(auctex)Top") on how to set it up.

Bye, Reiner.

LaTeX-mode menu

[Yehudah Rubinsky]

I have noticed that when editing in LaTeX mode I sometimes get a "super 
LaTeX-mode". This mode has LaTeX  and Command menus and lots of additional 
keystroke commands (i.e. C-c C-f C-font) while the normal LaTeX mode has 
only a TeX menu. I've been unable to figure out what causes this "super 
LaTeX-mode". Does anyone have any ideas?

emacs 21.2.1 on W2K Pro / Cygwin with auctex version 11.13.

Best,
Ed
