NAME

       update-auctex-elisp  -  Update  AUCTeX automatically generated TeX macros and LaTeX styles
       data

SYNOPSIS

       update-auctex-elisp [--daemon] [--no-act] [FLAVOR ...]

DESCRIPTION

       The update-auctex-elisp script updates the automatically generated TeX and LaTeX data used
       by  AUCTeX  and  stored  in  /var/lib/auctex/<FLAVOR>, where <FLAVOR> stands for any valid
       installed Emacs flavor.

       It is called automatically by the Debian auctex package (via dpkg triggers)  whenever  new
       (La)TeX macros and style files are installed in the TeX and METAFONT system trees; beside,
       it is called on GNU AUCTeX and GNU Emacs flavor upgrades and installations, to  ensure  up
       to  date  parsing.  It may and should also be called manually after additions to the local
       TeX and METAFONT system tree.

       If no arguments are specified, update-auctex-elisp caters to  every  supported  GNU  Emacs
       flavor  installed  on  the system; else it updates only the specified flavors, if they are
       installed.
