Subject: 13.1.1; TeX-quote-after-quote not set correctly in language styles
Date: Fri, 11 Mar 2022 11:51:00 +0100
Language style files initialize the fourth argument of
`TeX-quote-language` from a language specific variable. For instance
consider the following lines (currently 45-48) from german.el

   (q-after-q (if (and (boundp 'LaTeX-german-quote-after-quote)
                       LaTeX-german-quote-after-quote)
                  LaTeX-german-quote-after-quote
                t)))

There is no way q-after-q can be set to nil by setting
`LaTeX-german-quote-after-quote` to nil because of the if condition.
The correct code is probably

   (q-after-q (if (boundp 'LaTeX-german-quote-after-quote)
                  LaTeX-german-quote-after-quote
                t)))

There might be similar issues in other language style files.

Thanks for the report.  I agree, the way q-after-q is currently
implemented it can never become nil.  OTOH, News in 11.81 has this
entry:

• The language-specific insertion of quotation marks was generalized.
  The variables LaTeX-german-open-quote, LaTeX-german-close-quote,
  LaTeX-german-quote-after-quote, LaTeX-italian-open-quote,
  LaTeX-italian-close-quote, and LaTeX-italian-quote-after-quote are now
  obsolete.  If you are not satisfied with the default settings, you
  should customize TeX-quote-language-alist instead.

AUCTeX 11.81 was released in September 2005, I think the transition
period (even in Emacs time calculation) is over and we can safely delete
them which would also fix the bug above.

> There might be similar issues in other language style files.

ngerman.el is another candidate.

Best, Arash

Hi Frank,

in future, please keep the bug#@debbugs.gnu.org in Cc, Thanks.

I pushed a change to AUCTeX repo (806100f29a) which should fix the issue
you've reported.  Note that I actually deleted those old variables.  So
please customize `TeX-quote-language-alist' if you want to adjust the
behavior.

Again, thanks for your report which I'm closing now.

Best, Arash
