Hello!
Right now, AUCTeX doesn't warn the user if BibTeX complains about
something, see
<URL:http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.auc-tex/3084>.
I attach a patch that reports the number of warnings/errors from the
BibTeX run instead of only suggesting "You should perhaps run LaTeX
again to get citations right."
It is good to report the actual number of warnings/errors: you might
have some bib entries that are not complete yet (missing year or
volume or ...), so you expect that there will be, say, 2 warnings.
Then you can see directly with the attached patch if the number of
warnings increases (bad) or is constant (expected).
I also changed "You should perhaps run LaTeX again to get citations
right." to "BibTeX finished successfully. Run LaTeX again to get
citations right." It seems to me that a BibTeX run is only triggered
when necessary (see `TeX-LaTeX-sentinel'), so one _should_ run LaTeX
again, not perhaps.
(I haven't found the time yet to sign up at Savannah and get familiar
with CVS, so could someone (Ralf?) check this in? Thanks!)
