tex-region in LaTeX mode fails

tex-region in LaTeX mode fails

[Olivier Esser]

Hello,

The tex-region command in the LaTeX mode of emacs fails in emacs 21.3.1. 
This is due to the fact that emacs does not insert properly 
\end{document} at the end of the region. It works after correcting the 
line 784 of tex-mode.el.

...

(setq tex-command latex-run-command)
(setq tex-start-of-header "\\\\document\\(style\\|class\\)")
(setq tex-end-of-header "\\\\begin\\s-*{document}")
(setq tex-trailer "\\end{document}\n")   <-------- corrected line

...

Sincerely,

Olivier Esser

This is a known bug in 21.3.  It has been fixed in CVS:

BTW, shouldn't this patch go into the EMACS_21_1_RC branch too or will
Emacs 21.4 be released from current HEAD?

Bye, Reiner.
