hi.
i recently switched my laptop over to texlive from tetex. now i find
that i can't get auctex to compile latex files unless i start emacs
from a terminal window command prompt. (it tells me it can't find the
latex binary) i've used customise to set up the latex commands to
reflect the locations of the new binaries. i have TEXINPUTS, TEXMF
and TEX_PATH set in my .bashrc. what am i forgetting?
thanks in advance,

So where do you start emacs from?

If you do not start emacs from bash, then emacs can't be informed about
bash variables.

Maybe $PATH?

i have stuff set up like this in my .bashrc :
FOO_PATH=/blah/blah:/usr/blah/blah
BAR_PATH=/yadda/yadda:/usr/yadda/yadda:/usr/local/yadda/yadda
PATH=$FOO_PATH:$BAR_PATH
checked again, and i haven't forgotten to add any of the relevant
$TEX_STUFF. however, just in case anyone was worried, i don't think
this is an emacs/auctex problem since i've discovered that i can no
longer compile latex files in console. (this is on slackware linux 9)
things do work on an rxvt console in x, though. problem must be
elsewhere. thanks for your help, though.

man bash
and read about what files are read into what shells at what time.
