+AUCTEX is an extensible package for writing and formatting TeX files in
+GNU Emacs and XEmacs.
+
+It provides the most extensive LaTeX editing support available for a
+general purpose editor. Apart from the customary TeX shell
+functionality, it provides syntax highlighting, smart indentation and
+formatting, previews of mathematics and other stuff right in the editing
+buffer (preview-latex), smart folding of syntactical elements, macro and
+environment completion. It also supports the self-documenting .dtx
+format from the LaTeX project. Support for other TeX-based formats
+includes ConTeXt and plain TeX, but is quite more sketchy.
