;;; LOADING
;;;;;;;;;;;
;;;
;;; To use this code, place the file in a directory searched by lisp
;;; Add
;;;
;;; (autoload 'report-latex-bug "latexbug" 
;;;               "LaTeX bug report generator" t)
;;;
;;; to your .emacs file (without the ;;;).
;;;
;;; Then if the impossible happens and you discover a bug in LaTeX,
;;; or wish to suggest a change to LaTeX, type
;;; M-x report-latex-bug
;;;
;;; and follow the instructions.
;;;
;;; A file latexbug.cfg can be used to customise
;;; latexbug.tex as described in the comments in latexbug.tex.
;;; or you can customise in your .emacs, as shown below.
;;;
;;; CUSTOMISATION
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;;;
;;; The following variables may be set in your .emacs to customise this
;;; file.
;;;
;;; (setq ltxbug-name "David Carlisle") ; your name
;;; (setq ltxbug-address "dpc@,,,")     ; your email address
;;;       If these two are not set here, or in the latexbug.cfg
;;;       file. emacs will prompt for the values. The prompt
;;;       will suggest default values based on standard emacs variables
;;;       user-full-name and user-mail-address.
;;;
;;; (setq ltxbug-mail-headers "...") ; additional mail headers.
;;;        For example (setq ltxbug-mail-headers "FCC: ~/Mail/sent")
;;;        To log outgoing mail in a `sent' file.
;;; 
;;; (setq ltxbug-latex-command "...") ; latex command
;;;        Set this if LaTeX is not called latex, eg it may be latex2e.
;;;
;;;
;;; Perhaps I should have based this on gnat's send-pr.el but it seemed
;;; easier to write it from scratch to work in latexbug.tex at the
;;; required points.
;;;
