'LaTex-indent-level' is already set to 2 and `LaTeX-item-indent' is set
to -2. So that is not the problem.
Tab-key works fine when I edit .txt files but seems to be dead when I
edit .tex files. This is the auctex section of my .emacs file:
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; BEGIN AUCTEX ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
(require 'tex-site)
;; Enable auto-fill
(add-hook 'TeX-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill)
(add-hook 'TeX-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(TeX-source-specials-mode 1)
(add-to-list 'TeX-output-view-style
'("^pdf$" "." "kpdf %o"))
(add-to-list 'TeX-output-view-style
'("^dvi$" "." "kdvi %o"))))
;;;;;;;;;;;;;; END AUCTEX ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
There is nothing below the above line in the .emacs file. I have also tried
to add this the "(add-hook 'Tex-mode-hook ....)))" section:
(add-hook 'TeX-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(TeX-source-specials-mode 1)
(local-set-key "\C-l" 'th-complete-or-indent t)
(local-set-key "\t" 'LaTex-indent-line t)
(add-to-list 'TeX-output-view-style
'("^pdf$" "." "kpdf %o"))
(add-to-list 'TeX-output-view-style
'("^dvi$" "." "kdvi %o"))))
But that does nothing either.
What happens when you press the Tab-key in auctex?
