Hallo,

working with emacs and auctex, I found that the "Inverse DVI search"
does not work on my system.

I describe a shortened process, perhaps you can reproduce this "bug"
on your machine.

Load a tex file, say test.tex. Then give the command "Latex" to produce
test.dvi. Then run "Latex-View" and the yap window opens. Then
go back to the emacs window WITHOUT deleting the yap process.
Then give again the command "Latex" . Now the system asks

Process 'Latex-View' for document 'test' running, kill it? (yes or no)

When I answer 'yes', emacs hangs. I can stop it only by the
Windows task manager and finally Microsoft asks wether or
not I want to send a problem report (of course, I do not).

The same problem occures with ispell:

I invoke Emacs or, from a command line, emacs -Q.
Then I load some file text.tex and run
ispell. Now, when I want to terminate ispell
before it has proved the whole text, I type the letter q.
The system then asks

Really kill ispell process? (y or n)

I type 'y' and now emacs hangs. I cannot terminate
the program by C-g, even when I type this repeatedly. Again
I can terminate emacs only with the Windows task manager.

I found that emacs hangs when the function ispell-kill-ispell
(in ispell.el) is called and when the command (delete-process
ispell-process) within this function is called.

I have installed Ispell 3.1.20

Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.

Be sure to consult the FAQ section in the manual before submitting
a bug report.  If the bug (or problem) is triggered by a specific
(La)TeX file, you should try to produce a minimal sample file
showing the problem and include it in your report.

Your bug report will be posted to the AUCTeX bug reporting list.
