I'm using emacs 24 from git on Archlinux, with AUCTeX 11.86. I find AUCTeX's way of handling errors very messy, and wonder if there's something I could configure to make it better (or if it's something I already configured that makes it so bad to begin with).
When I compile a document with errors, I get the usual "LaTeX errors in `XXXX'. Use C-c ` to display." When I hit that key I get the error buffer, and meanwhile the following in the minibuffer: Use M-x make-directory RET RET to create the directory and its parents Applying style hooks... done Perform latex-mode auto-insertion? (y or n) I say 'n', because… why? Why is it doing all this? What I end up with is two side-by-side buffers, *Tex Help* on the right, with my errors, and a blank buffer called "Arch Linux" on the left. As far as I can tell that buffer doesn't do anything, but it does mean that it's a fair amount of work to get my previous window configuration back. What have I done to make it like this? It happens with everything, even the simplest error-producing document. I have practically no auctex/latex related customization going on. Any advice?
