11.86 is still the latest, dating back from one year or two, something like
that.
Regarding installing it, I have:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/Downloads/emacs/site-lisp/auctex-11.86/lisp")
(add-to-list 'load-path
"~/Downloads/emacs/site-lisp/auctex-11.86/lisp/auctex")
(when (locate-library "auctex")
(load "auctex.el") t)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
But you must pay attention to the following:
- (la)tex-mode :: default Emacs built-in (La)TeX mode
- (La)TeX-mode :: AUCTeX (`LaTeX/P' in the modeline?)
and AUCTeX aliases `(la)tex-mode' to `(La)TeX-mode'.
Something very bad IMHO (having very different packages bound to the same
name, but in a different capitalization) for the sake of simplicity...
But, apart from that, it's a great package -- until you find out about Org ;-).
Best regards,
Seb
