Aloha Eric, I have this in my emacs starter-kit and it gives me access to reftex in latex code blocks in org-babel. I've changed a few things from the code I found on the link provided, which has two methods of integrating reftex with org-mode. The link also provides suggestions for key-bindings within org-mode. Perhaps you don't have to miss reftex anymore. *** ON Org-mode RefTeX setup - Kevin Brubeck Unhammer, [[http://www.mfasold.net/blog/2009/02/using-emacs-org-mode-to-draft-papers/ ][Reftex Setup]] #+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle yes (defun org-mode-article-modes () (reftex-mode t) (and (buffer-file-name) (file-exists-p (buffer-file-name)) (reftex-parse-all))) (add-hook 'org-mode-hook (lambda () (if (member "REFTEX" org-todo-keywords-1) (org-mode-article-modes)))) #+end_src I was struggling without reftex!
