Ah, yes, so they do. Well, I've got the build to work either way which is
good. Style file loading is not working, at least on windows, which is a
little unfortunate. I shall have to investigate this later; at least it's
running on unix.
I guess I am running out of options here; it looks I am going to have to
install auctex by hand on multiple machines. Unfortunate, but doable.
Again, thanks for the help.
