Formatting and Printing in Texinfo Mode
=======================================

  Texinfo mode provides several predefined key commands for TeX
formatting and printing.  These include commands for sorting indices,
looking at the printer queue, killing the formatting job, and
recentering the display of the buffer in which the operations occur.

`C-c C-t C-b'
`M-x texinfo-tex-buffer'
     Run `texi2dvi' on the current buffer.

`C-c C-t C-r'
`M-x texinfo-tex-region'
     Run TeX on the current region.

`C-c C-t C-i'
`M-x texinfo-texindex'
     Sort the indices of a Texinfo file formatted with
     `texinfo-tex-region'.

`C-c C-t C-p'
`M-x texinfo-tex-print'
     Print a DVI file that was made with `texinfo-tex-region' or
     `texinfo-tex-buffer'.

`C-c C-t C-q'
`M-x tex-show-print-queue'
     Show the print queue.

`C-c C-t C-d'
`M-x texinfo-delete-from-print-queue'
     Delete a job from the print queue; you will be prompted for the job
     number shown by a preceding `C-c C-t C-q' command
     (`texinfo-show-tex-print-queue').

`C-c C-t C-k'
`M-x tex-kill-job'
     Kill the currently running TeX job started by `texinfo-tex-region'
     or `texinfo-tex-buffer', or any other process running in the
     Texinfo shell buffer.

`C-c C-t C-x'
`M-x texinfo-quit-job'
     Quit a TeX formatting job that has stopped because of an error by
     sending an <x> to it.  When you do this, TeX preserves a record of
     what it did in a `.log' file.

`C-c C-t C-l'
`M-x tex-recenter-output-buffer'
     Redisplay the shell buffer in which the TeX printing and formatting
     commands are run to show its most recent output.

  Thus, the usual sequence of commands for formatting a buffer is as
follows (with comments to the right):

     C-c C-t C-b             Run `texi2dvi' on the buffer.
     C-c C-t C-p             Print the DVI file.
     C-c C-t C-q             Display the printer queue.

  The Texinfo mode TeX formatting commands start a subshell in Emacs
called the `*tex-shell*'.  The `texinfo-tex-command',
`texinfo-texindex-command', and `tex-dvi-print-command' commands are
all run in this shell.

  You can watch the commands operate in the `*tex-shell*' buffer, and
you can switch to and from and use the `*tex-shell*' buffer as you
would any other shell buffer.

  The formatting and print commands depend on the values of several
variables.  The default values are:

          Variable                              Default value
     
     texinfo-texi2dvi-command                  "texi2dvi"
     texinfo-tex-command                       "tex"
     texinfo-texindex-command                  "texindex"
     texinfo-delete-from-print-queue-command   "lprm"
     texinfo-tex-trailer                       "@bye"
     tex-start-of-header                       "%**start"
     tex-end-of-header                         "%**end"
     tex-dvi-print-command                     "lpr -d"
     tex-show-queue-command                    "lpq"

  You can change the values of these variables with the `M-x
edit-options' command (Setting Variables: (emacs)Examining.), or with your `.emacs'
initialization file (
