yep, I used --prefix. The typo above is perhaps because I've been itching to try preview-latex :) (I primarily use NT Emacs 21.3, but am tempted to switch to XEmacs just for this.) > It should also recommend copying tex-site.el manually to somewhere > within your load-path. This will change with 11.80, where tex-site.el > will be copied automatically. Well, I don't think the instructions in INSTALL mention this. Anyway, I manually added the my_lisp_dir/auctex directory to load-path and copied tex-site.el to that directory. (All of my lisp directories come before the site-wide directories in load-path.) However, when I use (require 'tex-site) I get the following error on loading a tex file: File mode specification error: (void-variable TeX-auto-global) When I check the TeX-file customization group, the only variable mentioned there is TeX-macro-global, in spite of the fact that tex-site.el has a (defcustom TeX-auto-global ...) form. Even when I use (require 'tex-site "my_lisp_dir/auctex/tex-site.el") to make sure it loads from the right file, I get the same error. I also erased all previous customization of auctex just in case this was a compatibility issue, but that didn't help either. On the other hand, if I load tex-site.el directly, instead of requiring tex-site, then everything works fine. I'm curious to know what's going on here.
