Hi Mohamed,

I did not explore emacs too much. At present for context, I find vim much 
better (simply because I know vim very well). I rarely use latex these 
days, so there is not much incentive to learn emacs. I might look at this 
again in future if I have to use latex in a large project.

One thing that I never understood was why it is hard to port preview-latex 
to ConTeXt, especially for displays. For displays and floats, all preview 
latex does is create a pdf/png; in ConTeXt, we can get that easily by 
using \startTEXpage ... \stopTEXpage around the environment. I assume that 
this would be easy for someone who knows the inner working of AucTeX. For 
me it is a long term project, which I will get to some day.

Best,
Aditya
