Hello,

I hope there are some Emacs users out there. ;-)

I can use emacs with context-mode when I start the program like this:

. ~/context/tex/setuptex ; emacs &

I could not find a way to set this in my emacs init file. Neither of the
ways described here worked for me:

https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/ExecPath

I set this in .bashrc:

if [-f ~/context/tex/setuptex ]; then
   . ~/context/tex/setuptex
fi

to always have context available in a shell and in emacs if I start it
from bash.

Starting Emacs via the start menu of Gnome results in an Emacs that does
not know ConTeXt.

I found some hints how to source .bashrc in emacs but this only affects
the emacs shell not the command calling from within AucTeX.

Has anyone found a solution for this?

juh


not a solution for your problem (I manually run setuptex when I open an emacs shell)
but I guess that looking at 
https://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/
can help.
