Re: text properties in tex mode

You should have complained instantaneously ;-)

After adding these lines to your .emacs and restarting Emacs could you
please go in a buffer in LaTeX mode, type

C-h v RET facemenu-add-face-function RET

and tell me what Emacs prints?

I suppose TeX mode breaks this with

  (set (make-local-variable 'facemenu-add-face-function)
       (lambda (face end)
         (or (cdr (assq face tex-face-alist))
             (error "Face %s not configured for %s mode" face mode-name))))

From the Emacs Help menu select Send Bug Report... choose an appropriate
subject and write what you did to produce the bug.  If you can't (or
don't want to) send the report from Emacs itself, copy the From:, To:,
and Subject: fields as well as the entire remaining text to the
respective fields of your preferred mail composer and send them as
usual.
