Here is the code I have now in .emacs. However, the problem is only
partly solved; that is, the option XeLaTeX does show up in the Command
menu but when I do C-c C-c, I still get this in the minibuffer:
Command: (default LaTeX)
As I understand the matter, this should be:
Command: (default XeLaTeX)
What is missing? I would appreciate any help.
Tariq
(I must add that previously, C-c C-c used to give me the expected
default XeLaTeX as default in the minibuffer.)
;; Part of the code snippet in .emacs
;;set xetex mode in tex/latex
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook #'my-latex-mode-hook) ;; removal of # does
not do any good/harm (why?)
(defun my-latex-mode-hook ()
(add-to-list 'TeX-command-list
'("XeLaTeX" "%`xelatex%(mode)%' %t" TeX-run-TeX nil
t))
(setq TeX-command-default
(save-excursion
(save-restriction
(widen)
(goto-char (point-min))
(let ((re (concat "^\\s-*\\\\usepackage\\(?:\\[.*\\]\
\)?"
"{.*\\<\\(?:font\\|math\\)spec\
\>.*}")))
(if (re-search-forward re 3000 t)
"XeLaTeX"
"LaTeX"))))))
