+Support for editing Latex
+
+** Prerequesites
+
+In order to use AUCTeX the following software is required in addition:
+
+*** A working TeX installation
+
+**** UNIX-Style systems
+A popular TEX system is TEX Live which may also be available via the
+package system of your operating system distribution.
+
+**** Mac OSX
+A popular TEX system for Mac OS X is MacTEX which is based on TEX
+Live.
+
+*** A recent Ghostscript
+
+This is needed for operation of preview-latex in both DVI and PDF
+mode. Most versions of Ghostscript nowadays in use should work fine
+(version 7.0 and newer).
