You could do it with hook: (add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook #'my-latex-mode-hook) (defun my-latex-mode-hook () (add-to-list 'TeX-command-list '("XeLaTeX" "%`xelatex%(mode)%' %t" TeX-run-TeX nil t))) The following is a fancier version of the hook. It sets XeLaTeX the default compiler when it finds fontspec or mathspec package being loaded with \usepackage{}. (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"))))))
