I am using emacs 21.1.1 pn a mostly testing system, and I would like to use context-mode as the "tex-default-mode". I am unable to get things working properly, so if anyone can help, I will very much appreciate it.
Not knowing that context.el is packaged in with emacs 21 (or with auctex) I obtained a copy from the author, and installed it in my ~/elisp directory, and added to my .emacs the following. (require 'tex-site) (load "context") (setq tex-default-mode 'context-mode) Each time I load a .tex file, I get font-locking and "ConTeXt-en Fill" in my modeline, but I don't get any menubar menus (as I believe I should). My menus are File, Edit, Options, Buffers, Tools, Help, and that's all, not even a Tex menu. First, in investigating the problem, I discovered that context is already a part of emacs/auctex, because I get the following $ locate context.el /home/tk/elisp/context.el /var/lib/auctex/emacs20/context.elc /var/lib/auctex/emacs21/context.elc So, I thought that my personal context.el maybe conflicts with the system context (single-user "system"), and I moved it out of the way, and try to restart emacs, and emacs complains that it can't load "context." If I remove the "load "context"" from my startup file, emacs starts ok, but from a tex buffer, I cannot "M-x context-mode" (no completions found after M-x context). So, if I understand correctly, emacs doesn't see the context.elc file. If I don't "autoload" context, and I set tex-default-mode to latex-mode, the tex buffers open in TeX mode (which seems wrong), but I can manually enter latex-mode (M-x latex-mode), which works properly - proper menus. If I do load context, but keep latex-mode as the tex-default-mode, auctex no longer works, but in the TeX mode, I get a Tex menu, one item of which is ConTeXt, but I don't get the ConTeXt menus. Sorry for such a complicated message, but I have tried all I can to make this work properly, I am a very non-expert user, and I really can't figure out what's going on, so, any help will be very much appreciated.
