Well, if anybody knows how to actually reach Kresten these days, I'd
not mind getting a pointer.

Uh, actually I don't know. After all, this _is_ the AUCTeX users'
list.

It is likely that it requires the
\begin{document}
and
\end{document}
to be on a line of their own, without indentation and in exactly that
form. And in the file that you are wanting to compile. If this is
already the case, I am out of guesses.
AUCTeX will, by the way, have similar requirements to get this to
work.

Sounds ok.

MSYS, when installed, places an icon on your desktop. Double-click on
that icon, and this starts a "bash" shell.
