Re: [O] orgmode and auctex

[Christopher Witte]

Hi all,

(setq TeX-auto-save t)
(setq TeX-parse-self t)
(setq-default TeX-master nil)
(make-variable-buffer-local 'TeX-master) ;; I think this is need because the variable is not buffer local until Auctex is active

(defun org-mode-reftex-setup ()
  (setq TeX-master t)
  (load-library "reftex")
  (and (buffer-file-name)
       (file-exists-p (buffer-file-name))
       (progn 
     (reftex-parse-all)
     (reftex-set-cite-format "[[cite:%l][%l]]")))
  (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c )") 'reftex-citation)
  (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c (") 'org-mode-reftex-search))
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'org-mode-reftex-setup)

This appears to work for me.  This should make the buffer local version of TeX-master "t" for all org buffer and keep it the default otherwise.  Is this a good way to work around this problem?

Cheers,
Chris.

Indeed - the backtrace is as follows:

 ...
 completing-read-default("Master file: " read-file-name-internal file-exists-p t "~/src/org/" file-name-history "~/src/org/foo.org" nil)
 completing-read("Master file: " read-file-name-internal file-exists-p t "~/src/org/" file-name-history "~/src/org/foo.org")
 read-file-name-default("Master file: " nil nil t nil nil)
 read-file-name("Master file: " nil nil t nil)
 reftex-TeX-master-file()
 reftex-tie-multifile-symbols()
 reftex-access-scan-info((16))
 reftex-parse-all()

 (and (buffer-file-name) (file-exists-p (buffer-file-name)) (reftex-parse-all))

 org-mode-reftex-setup()
 run-hooks(change-major-mode-after-body-hook text-mode-hook outline-mode-hook org-mode-hook)
 apply(run-hooks (change-major-mode-after-body-hook text-mode-hook outline-mode-hook org-mode-hook))
 run-mode-hooks(org-mode-hook)
 org-mode()
 set-auto-mode-0(org-mode nil)
 set-auto-mode()
 normal-mode(t)
 after-find-file(nil t)
 find-file-noselect-1(#<buffer foo.org> "~/src/org/foo.org" nil nil "~/src/org/foo.org" (3018153 2055))
 find-file-noselect("~/src/org/foo.org" nil nil t)
 find-file("~/src/org/foo.org" t)
 call-interactively(find-file nil nil)

It's actually a bit more complicated than that: it checks if
TeX-master-file is defined as a function (i.e. AUCTEX is loaded) and if
so calls it. It then checks if tex-main-file is defined as a function
(i.e. Emacs LaTeX mode is loaded) and if so calls it. Then it check if
TeX-master is t (in which case (buffer-file-name) is called to set the
master, or 'shared (in which case it reads the file name) or non-nil (in
which case it is used verbatim) or nil (in which case it reads the file
name - the operative case here).

I'll leave it here for now: I've been sick for a couple of days and I
can't think straight right now (or ever...)
