It automatically indents your text as you type it and lets +you format a whole file at once. The outlining and folding facilities +provide you with a focused and clean view of your text. + +@AUCTeX{} lets you process your source files by running @TeX{} and +related tools (such as output filters, post processors for generating +indices and bibliographies, and viewers) from inside Emacs. @AUCTeX{} +lets you browse through the errors @TeX{} reported, while it moves the +cursor directly to the reported error, and displays some documentation +for that particular error. This will even work when the document is +spread over several files. + +One component of @AUCTeX{} that @LaTeX{} users will find attractive is +@previewlatex{}, a combination of folding and in-source previewing +that provides true ``What You See Is What You Get'' experience in your +sourcebuffer, while letting you retain full control. +@ifset rawfile +For more information, see further below. +@end ifset + +More detailed information about the features and usage of @AUCTeX{} can +be found in the +@ifset rawfile +@AUCTeX{} manual. You can access it from within Emacs by typing +@kbd{C-h i d m auctex @key{RET}}.
