Hi Ikumi and Al,
Thank you very much for your both of your responses and suggestions.
Al, I actually do have a space between the %%% and the variables. This
was just a copying error in my email.
I completely removed Doom-emacs and reinstalled. Still the same result.
And I was having the same result before I started using Doom. And I
tried the Doom sandbox C-C C-p (not loading my private config) and it
was the same.
I think there must be a big clue in the following behaviour:
If I delete the local variable, then I get Auctex to add it again using
C-c _, in order to point Auctex to the main file. Then I am able to
compile. However, as soon as I leave Doom-Emacs or Emacs, and reload, I
am back where I started. So Emacs / Doom-Emacs is simply not seeing the
local variable when the files are being reloaded.
Why, I wonder?
Any further ideas on this? Thanks.
David
%%%mode: latex
%%%TeX-master: "../main"
%%% End:
David, when I tried this on Doom it gave me errors when opening the file. When
I changed it to have a space between %%% and the variables, like this
%%% Local Variables:
%%% mode: latex
%%% TeX-master: "../main"
%%% End:
everything worked. Perhaps try this?
Also, you might want to test on a Doom sandbox (where your private
configuration is disabled) as an extra sanity check.
Best regards,
