And if things still are messed up? :) If this is a clue, even though I can get comments to appear in red in a LaTeX file, I have to turn on font-lock-mode manually to get them to appear. (Which of course wasn't the case before.) By the way, just to check, I loaded the *exact* same .emacs as I was running on the broken laptop, and no improvement. Still have nice colors in e.g. mail-mode, emacs-lisp-mode, etc. But not in any latex files. Also note, same behavior is seen when I run font-lock-mode from emacs -q in a latex buffer (though a different color is used for comments). I was pretty sure that the default behavior of font-lock-mode was more complicated than this. Joe
