auctex: Mid-term Goals
A.3.1 Mid-term Goals
--------------------
* Integration of preview-latex into AUCTeX
As of AUCTeX 11.81 preview-latex is a part of AUCTeX in the sense
that the installation routines were merged and preview-latex is
being packaged with AUCTeX.
Further integration will happen at the backend. This involves
folding of error parsing and task management of both packages which
will ease development efforts and avoid redundant work.
* Error help catalogs
Currently, the help for errors is more or less hardwired into
'tex.el'. For supporting error help in other languages, it would
be sensible to instead arrange error messages in language-specific
files, make a common info file from all such catalogs in a given
language and look the error texts up in an appropriate index. The
user would then specify a preference list of languages, and the
errors would be looked up in the catalogs in sequence until they
were identified.
* Combining 'docTeX' with RefTeX
Macro cross references should also be usable for document
navigation using RefTeX.
