copied from the top of the file (containing \documentstyle, etc.),
running LaTeX under a special subshell. M-x tex-buffer (tex-buffer) does the whole buffer.
M-x tex-file (tex-file) saves the buffer and then processes the file.
M-x tex-print (tex-print) prints the .dvi file made by any of these.
M-x tex-view (tex-view) previews the .dvi file made by any of these.
M-x tex-bibtex-file (tex-bibtex-file) runs bibtex on the file of the current buffer.
Use M-x tex-validate-buffer (tex-validate-buffer) to check buffer for paragraphs containing
mismatched $'s or braces.

run by M-x tex-region (tex-region) or M-x tex-buffer (tex-buffer).
tex-dvi-print-command
Command string used by M-x tex-print (tex-print) to print a .dvi file.
