I don't know how I did it, but now I 'm again able to see the options on AUCTeX. (I don't mean the menus; I mean the options through M-x customize-group RET AUCTeX.) Anyway, I made the settings for the various XeTeX commands as you described, added the local variables list, but Emacs can't find xelatex: "/bin/sh: xelatex: command not found". I suppose there is some variable to set the command search path?
Sincere thanks, C.C. PS. 1)If this discussion has gone off-topic for the subject of the list, please tell me so, to mail you in private. 2) You were right about the latex-mode, that it was unlikely not to be found. I was trying to do M-x customize-mode RET LaTeX-mode , just after Emacs.app opened, and I couldn't. But if I first load a LaTeX file, I 'm able to customize the mode as I expected.
