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.
