[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello,

First: AUCTeX is really a great tool!
I want to thank you for developing and maintaining it.

When I try to set ConTeXt to Mark IV

  C-h v ConTeXt-Mark-version

I get the error

  custom-variable-value-create: Wrong type argument: symbolp, "string"

Since I am new to Emacs
the only way I found to work around this
is to change the default value in context.el directly.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Silvester Rößner

This had been already reported and fixed.  However, the change is not
yet available in a released version, so you should manually fix this
in the source code of AUCTeX, here is how:

Please, tell us if you find difficulties.  Remember to hit the "Reply

Bye,
