Steps to Include AucTeX or some other enhanced TeX package.

Rationale:

A significant number of emacs audience needs to use TeX... for example, a 
large percentage of poeple using Aquamacs Emacs uses it because its 
enhanced TeX abilities, plus Aquamac Emacs's ease of use.

Implemetation steps:

• Find out what is the most popular TeX package, read about AucTeX.

• Find out what is bundled by default in GNU Emacs, Lennart's EmacsW32, 
Carbon emacs, Aquamacs.

• Developer should be minimally familiar in using LaTeX.

• Bundle the package. Make sure it's easy to use if there's any issues.

Since issue 20 mentions it, here is how I installed AUCTeX 11.86 on 
Emacs 24.2 on Windows 8 Pro 64-bit, today. 
Software: 
   * MikTeX 2.9 
   * Emacs 24.2 
   * libpng14.dll, zlib1.dll 
   * gswin32c.exe, gsdll32.dll (Ghostscript 9.06 32-bit) 
Procedure: 
   * Installing MikTeX should be straightforward 
   * To grab those DLLs and EXEs, follow the rationale in 
http://code.google.com/p/ergoemacs/wiki/CreatingErgoEmacsWindowsInsta... and 
copy them to emacs' /bin folder 
   * Install AUCTeX via emacs' package manager 
   * Edit you init.el: 
     ; exclude "-dSAFER" from the default settings 
     (setq preview-gs-options '("-q" "-dNOPAUSE" "-DNOPLATFONTS" 
"-dPrinted" "-dTextAlphaBits=4" "-dGraphicsAlphaBits=4")) 
To test-run: 
   * Open any LaTeX file (in LaTeX mode) 
   * Preview: C-c C-p C-d 
Notes: 
   * My PATH environment variable contains "C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 
2.9\miktex\bin\x64\" 
   * MikTeX may need to install some packages, e.g. preview.sty 
I hope I didn't forget anything. 
Kind regards, 
Xavier Pinho
