Curiously I just saw this tex/emacs question/answer elsewhere – particularly amusing the first 'char' of the answer. Question: | I'm a new Emacs/Auctex User. Auctex for Emacs is amazing but | there are some little things could be better. When generating a | section with c-c c-s the label ist generated automatically. But | if there is an german Umlaut in the section title like 'ä' this | becomes just 'a' in the label. Is there any possibility that | auctex will substitute the 'ä' by 'ae' and not by 'a'? Answer: | '�' is not possible, since latex can not handle Umlauts in references. | For 'ae' I'm sure someone is able to provide a little patch. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
