I prefer to issue a simple command in my .emacs file and leave the rest of the commands in TeX-command-list alone, but I can't figure out how to do it. The closest I've come is this: (eval-after-load "tex" '(setq TeX-command-list (append TeX-command-list (list (list "BibTeX" "bibtex --min-crossrefs=100 %s" 'TeX-run-command nil t :help "Run BibTeX with min-crossrefs=100") Obviously, this simply tacks a second command called BibTeX onto the end of TeX-command-list, which is not what I want -- I want to replace the existing command. Is there any way I can do this short of explicitly writing out the entire TeX-command-list in my .emacs file (as customize-variable will do)?... (setcdr (assoc "BibTeX" TeX-command-list) '("bibtex --min-crossrefs=100 %s" 'TeX-run-command nil t :help "Run BibTeXt with ..."))
Thanks for the quick response! However, when I add it to my .emacs file I get the following error upon starting Emacs:
Symbol's value as variable is void: TeX-command-listThis occurs whether I place the command inside or outside eval-after-load "tex". I have an append command of the same form as the one above inside an eval-after-load statement and it works just fine -- doesn't this imply that TeX-command-list is defined at that point? Regardless, the error comes up whether I place the setcdr command before or after the append command. I looked up setcdr in the docs to try to do some troubleshooting, but I got nowhere. As far as I can tell your syntax is perfect.
Thanks for your help -- you and Ralf have been very patient with me while I try to figure Emacs out.
