OK, I know more, but I'm still puzzled.

I forgot that what I had done, because I am a keyboard guy, I turned off
all the toolbars.  And then I turned ON the toolbars only for latex
buffers, because even though I'm a keyboard guy, I never managed to
figure out how to issue the latex, bibtex, and view commands through the
keyboard...

So my emacs configuration has the following in it:

;;;---------------------------------------------------------------------------
;;; Controlling the tool bar
;;;---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(tool-bar-mode 0)                       ;in general, we want it /off/
(defun add-tool-bar-to-selected-frame ()
  "Sometimes we'd like the toolbar only on specific frames."
  (interactive)
  (modify-frame-parameters (selected-frame) '((tool-bar-lines . 1))))
(defun remove-tool-bar-from-selected-frame ()
  "Sometimes we'd like the toolbar only on specific frames."
  (interactive)
  (modify-frame-parameters (selected-frame) '((tool-bar-lines . 0))))
(defun latex-frame-p ()
  "Is this frame one that's displaying a buffer in latex mode?"
  (eq
   (buffer-local-value 'major-mode
                       (window-buffer (frame-selected-window
(selected-frame))))
   'latex-mode))
(defun add-tool-bar-to-latex-frames ()
  (if (latex-frame-p)
      (add-tool-bar-to-selected-frame)
      (remove-tool-bar-from-selected-frame)))
(add-hook 'window-configuration-change-hook
          'add-tool-bar-to-latex-frames)

In aquamacs 1.9, this would add the right toolbar back to the latex
frames.  However, in aquamacs 2.0, this seems to add only the /default/
toolbar to the aquamacs frames, not the latex-specific one.  :-(

Does anyone have a clue about how I could modify this so that it works
for the new aquamacs?

Or (as seems quite possible), am I going about this all wrong, and
should I replace it with something far better that will achieve the same
purpose?

thanks!
