AucTex auto-completion

AucTex auto-completion

[Jan Guido Donath]

Hi, 

whenever I want to insert a graphics, I type

C-m \includeg <TAB> foo <RET>

After that, Emacs asks for the "Figure width (cm)". Here, I almost always
type \linewidth. Unfortunately, there is no auto-completion at this
point. If I type

\li <TAB>

I get the following error:

Symbol's function definition is void: comint-dynamic-complete

I assume, I have do define a set of variables, Emacs should expand to if
possible, but I dont really know how and where.

Greetings, 

Guido

Cool. Thank you very much. However, an explanation of that strange
behavior concerning TAB-completion would be interesting, too.

Greetings,
