-
-@AUCTeX{} is a powerful program offering many features and configuration
-options. If you are new to @AUCTeX{} this might be deterrent.
-Fortunately you do not have to learn everything at once. This Quick
-Start Guide will give you the knowledge of the most important commands
-and enable you to prepare your first @LaTeX{} document with @AUCTeX{}
-after only a few minutes of reading.
-
-In this introduction, we assume that @AUCTeX{} is already installed on
-your system. If this is not the case, you should read the file
-@file{INSTALL} in the base directory of the unpacked distribution
-tarball. These installation instructions are available in this manual
-as well, @ref{Installation}. We also assume that you are familiar with
-the way keystrokes are written in Emacs manuals. If not, have a look at
-the Emacs Tutorial in the Help menu.
-
-If @AUCTeX{} is installed, you might still need to activate it, by
-inserting
-
-@lisp
-(load "auctex.el" nil t t)
-@end lisp
-
-in your user init file.@footnote{This usually is a file in your home
-directory called @file{.emacs} if you are utilizing GNU Emacs or
-@file{.xemacs/init.el} if you are using XEmacs.} In order to get
-support for many of the @LaTeX{} packages you will use in your
-documents, you should enable document parsing as well, which can be
-achieved by putting
-
-@lisp
-(setq TeX-auto-save t)
-(setq TeX-parse-self t)
-@end lisp
-
-into your init file. Finally, if you often use @code{\include} or
-@code{\input}, you should make @AUCTeX{} aware of the multi-file
-document structure. You can do this by inserting
-
-@lisp
-(setq-default TeX-master nil)
-@end lisp
-
-into your init file. Each time you open a new file, @AUCTeX{} will then
-ask you for a master file.

-This Quick Start Guide covers two main topics: First we explain how
-@AUCTeX{} helps you in editing your input file for @TeX{}, @LaTeX{}, and
-some other formats. Then we describe the functions that @AUCTeX{}
-provides for processing the input files with @LaTeX{}, Bib@TeX{}, etc.,
-and for viewing and debugging.

-@node Editing Facilities
-@section Functions for editing TeX files
-
-@subsection Making your @TeX{} code more readable
-
-@AUCTeX{} can do syntax highlighting of your source code, that means
-commands will get special colors or fonts. You can enable it locally by
-typing @kbd{M-x font-lock-mode RET}. If you want to have font locking
-activated generally, enable @code{global-font-lock-mode}, e.g. with
-@kbd{M-x customize-variable RET global-font-lock-mode RET}.
-
-@AUCTeX{} will indent new lines to indicate their syntactical
-relationship to the surrounding text. For example, the text of a
-@code{\footnote} or text inside of an environment will be indented
-relative to the text around it. If the indenting has gotten wrong after
-adding or deleting some characters, use @key{TAB} to reindent the line,
-@kbd{M-q} for the whole paragraph, or @kbd{M-x LaTeX-fill-buffer RET}
-for the whole buffer.
-
-@subsection Entering sectioning commands
-@cindex Sectioning
-@cindex Sections
-@cindex Chapters
-@cindex @code{\chapter}
-@cindex @code{\section}
-@cindex @code{\subsection}
-@cindex @code{\label}
-
-Insertion of sectioning macros, that is @samp{\chapter},
-@samp{\section}, @samp{\subsection}, etc. and accompanying @samp{\label}
-commands may be eased by using @kbd{C-c C-s}. You will be asked for the
-section level. As nearly everywhere in @AUCTeX{}, you can use the
-@key{TAB} or @key{SPC} key to get a list of available level names, and
-to auto-complete what you started typing. Next, you will be asked for
-the printed title of the section, and last you will be asked for a label
-to be associated with the section.
-
-@subsection Inserting environments
-
-Similarly, you can insert environments, that is
-@samp{\begin@{@}}--@samp{\end@{@}} pairs: Type @kbd{C-c C-e}, and select
-an environment type. Again, you can use @key{TAB} or @key{SPC} to get a
-list, and to complete what you type. Actually, the list will not only
-provide standard @LaTeX{} environments, but also take your
-@samp{\documentclass} and @samp{\usepackage} commands into account if
-you have parsing enabled by setting @code{TeX-parse-self} to @code{t}.
-If you use a couple of environments frequently, you can use the up and
-down arrow keys (or @kbd{M-p} and @kbd{M-n}) in the minibuffer to get
-back to the previously inserted commands.
-
-Some environments need additional arguments. Often, @AUCTeX{} knows about
-this and asks you to enter a value.
-
-@subsection Inserting macros
-
-@kbd{C-c C-m}, or simply @kbd{C-c RET} will give you a prompt that asks
-you for a @LaTeX{} macro. You can use @key{TAB} for completion, or the
-up/down arrow keys (or @kbd{M-p} and @kbd{M-n}) to browse the command
-history. In many cases, @AUCTeX{} knows which arguments a macro needs
-and will ask you for that. It even can differentiate between mandatory
-and optional arguments---for details, see @ref{Completion}.
-
-An additional help for inserting macros is provided by the possibility
-to complete macros right in the buffer. With point at the end of a
-partially written macro, you can complete it by typing @kbd{M-TAB}.
-
-@subsection Changing the font
-
-@AUCTeX{} provides convenient keyboard shortcuts for inserting macros
-which specify the font to be used for typesetting certain parts of the
-text. They start with @kbd{C-c C-f}, and the last @kbd{C-} combination
-tells @AUCTeX{} which font you want:
-
-@table @kbd
-@item C-c C-f C-b
-@kindex C-c C-f C-b
-@cindex @code{\textbf}
-Insert @b{bold face} @samp{\textbf@{@point{}@}} text.
-
-@item C-c C-f C-i
-@kindex C-c C-f C-i
-@cindex @code{\textit}
-Insert @i{italics} @samp{\textit@{@point{}@}} text.
-
-@item C-c C-f C-e
-@kindex C-c C-f C-e
-@cindex @code{\emph}
-Insert @i{emphasized} @samp{\emph@{@point{}@}} text.
-
-@item C-c C-f C-s
-@kindex C-c C-f C-s
-@cindex @code{\textsl}
-Insert @i{slanted} @samp{\textsl@{@point{}@}} text.
-
-@item C-c C-f C-r
-@kindex C-c C-f C-r
-@cindex @code{\textrm}
-Insert roman @r{\textrm@{@point{}@}} text.
-
-@item C-c C-f C-f
-@kindex C-c C-f C-f
-@cindex @code{\textsf}
-Insert @sans{sans serif} @samp{\textsf@{@point{}@}} text.
-
-@item C-c C-f C-t
-@kindex C-c C-f C-t
-@cindex @code{\texttt}
-Insert @t{typewriter} @samp{\texttt@{@point{}@}} text.
-
-@item C-c C-f C-c
-@kindex C-c C-f C-c
-@cindex @code{\textsc}
-Insert @sc{small caps} @samp{\textsc@{@point{}@}} text.
-
-@item C-c C-f C-d
-@kindex C-c C-f C-c
-@cindex Deleting fonts
-Delete the innermost font specification containing point.
-
-@end table
-
-If you want to change font attributes of existing text, mark it as a
-region, and then invoke the commands. If no region is selected, the
-command will be inserted with empty braces, and you can start typing the
-changed text.
-
-Most of those commands will also work in math mode, but then macros like
-@code{\mathbf} will be inserted.
-
-
-@subsection Other useful features
-
-@AUCTeX{} also tries to help you when inserting the right ``quote''
-signs for your language, dollar signs to typeset math, or pairs of
-braces. It offers shortcuts for commenting out text (@kbd{C-c ;} for
-the current region or @kbd{C-c %} for the paragraph you are in). The
-same keystrokes will remove the % signs, if the region or paragraph is
-commented out yet. With @code{TeX-fold-mode}, you can hide certain
-parts (like footnotes, references etc.) that you do not edit currently.
-Support for Emacs' outline mode is provided as well. And there's more,
-but this is beyond the scope of this Quick Start Guide.

-@node Processing Facilities
-@section Creating and viewing output, debugging
-
-@subsection One Command for @LaTeX{}, helpers, viewers, and printing
-
-If you have typed some text and want to run @LaTeX{} (or @TeX{}, or
-other programs---see below) on it, type @kbd{C-c C-c}. If applicable,
-you will be asked whether you want to save changes, and which program
-you want to invoke. In many cases, the choice that @AUCTeX{} suggests
-will be just what you want: first @command{latex}, then a viewer. If a
-@command{latex} run produces or changes input files for
-@command{makeindex}, the next suggestion will be to run that program,
-and @AUCTeX{} knows that you need to run @command{latex} again
-afterwards---the same holds for Bib@TeX{}.
-
-When no processor invocation is necessary anymore, @AUCTeX{} will
-suggest to run a viewer, or you can chose to create a PostScript file
-using @command{dvips}, or to directly print it.
-
-At this place, a warning needs to be given: First, although @AUCTeX{} is
-really good in detecting the standard situations when an additional
-@command{latex} run is necessary, it cannot detect it always. Second,
-the creation of PostScript files or direct printing currently only works
-when your output file is a @acronym{DVI} file, not a @acronym{PDF} file.
-
-Ah, you didn't know you can do both? That brings us to the next topic.
-
-@subsection Choosing an output format
-
-From a @LaTeX{} file, you can produce @acronym{DVI} output, or a
-@acronym{PDF} file directly @i{via} @command{pdflatex}. You can switch
-on source specials for easier navigation in the output file, or tell
-@command{latex} to stop after an error (usually @code{\noninteractive}
-is used, to allow you to detect all errors in a single run).
-
-These options are controlled by toggles, the keystrokes should be easy
-to memorize:
-
-@table @kbd
-@item @kbd{C-c C-t C-p}
-This command toggles between @acronym{DVI} and @acronym{PDF} output
-
-@item @kbd{C-c C-t C-i}
-toggles interactive mode
-
-@item @kbd{C-c C-t C-s}
-toggles source specials support
-
-@item @kbd{C-c C-t C-o}
-toggles usage of Omega/lambda.
-
-@end table
-
-@subsection Debugging @LaTeX{}
-
-When @AUCTeX{} runs a program, it creates an output buffer in which it
-displays the output of the command. If there is a syntactical error in
-your file, @command{latex} will not complete successfully. @AUCTeX{}
-will tell you that, and you can get to the place where the first error
-occured by pressing @kbd{C-c `} (the last character is a backtick). The
-view will be split in two windows, the output will be displayed in the
-lower buffer, and both buffers will be centered around the place where
-the error ocurred. You can then try to fix it in the document buffer,
-and use the same keystrokes to get to the next error. This procedure
-may be repeated until all errors have been dealt with. By pressing
-@kbd{C-c C-w} (@code{TeX-toggle-debug-boxes}) you can toggle whether
-@AUCTeX{} should notify you of overfull and underfull boxes in addition
-to regular errors.
-
-If a command got stuck in a seemingly infinite loop, or you want to stop
-execution for other reasons, you can use @kbd{C-c C-k} (for ``kill'').
-Similar to @kbd{C-l}, which centers the buffer you are in around your
-current position, @kbd{C-c C-l} centers the output buffer so that the
-last lines added at the bottom become visible.
-
-@subsection Running @LaTeX{} on parts of your document
-
-If you want to check how some part of your text looks like, and do not
-want to wait until the whole document has been typeset, then mark it as
-a region and use @kbd{C-c C-r}. It behaves just like @kbd{C-c C-c}, but
-it only uses the document preamble and the region you marked.
-
-If you are using @code{\include} or @code{\input} to structure your
-document, try @kbd{C-c C-b} while you are editing one of the included
-files. It will run @command{latex} only on the current buffer, using the
-preamble from the master file.
-@c does this also work with input? why not?
