[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi AUCTeX,

The patchset for the new xref backend in tex-mode.el is still pending,
but no matter what the eventual outcome of that I think we still need to
have a complete set of AUCTeX modes included in
`semantic-symref-filepattern-alist'. Without them we just get the
cryptic message about customizing that variable when we try to use
`xref-find-references'. Also, I don't know whether it was decided not to
include the .tex extension where relevant, but this does mean that,
without further intervention, `xref-find-references' won't search .tex
files in any of the modes, even when you are actually searching from,
say, a LaTeX-mode .tex file. This seems suboptimal to me. I attach a
patch for your consideration.

Thanks,

David.
