Ideally the package should issue warnings, not TeX errors. Perhaps this could be suggested to the author. Nevertheless, AUCTeX should not barf on trying to display a help message in this case. I've checked in a change which makes the behavior more robust. -- Ralf _______________________________________________ auctex mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex
