Hi Folks,

Your instructions in INSTALL.WINDOWS may have missed a serious issue.
Auctex-11.55 uses "xdvi" for displaying DVI. On a MS windows-based machine,
xdvi is not available. I think most people uses MiKTeX which gives us "yap".

I tried to do a quick fix in tex.el but found use of other X-window
based programs
such as xpdf. Simply put, Auctex-11.55 is NOT for MS windows-based machines.
I wish you have made that clear in your release note. 

regards,

Jun
