[comp.emacs] etags under SunOS 4.1 doesn't work with LaTeX files

palkovic@LINAC.FNAL.GOV (John A. Palkovic) (10/11/90)

When I run "etags *.tex" on our 4/260 in a directory with about 100K
of *.tex LaTeX source files I get a TAGS file like this (linefeeds
replaced with C-l):

   C-l
   Maxwell.tex,0
   C-l
   bib.tex,0
etc...

Any ideas? It worked fine under SunOS 4.0.3. After all,

     The `etags' program is used to create a tag table file.  It knows
   the syntax of C, Fortran, LaTeX, Scheme and Emacs Lisp/Common Lisp.  To
   use `etags', type

        etags INPUTFILES...

   as a shell command.

   - emacs.texinfo

Hope I didn't just violate the copyleft.
