No, I haven't. But I suspect that in previous AUCTeX versions the path separator was autodetected by explicitly calling kpse executables (which is what I coded) and it has been replaced by some other code. We had some iterations of that already if I remember correctly. The problem addressed by the original code was that even on Windows, various search path separators are in use depending on the TeX system in use and its runtime environment, and they may even differ between command line and configuration file. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ bug-auctex mailing list bug-auctex@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex
