 Using the Local Variables List
 ==============================
 
   Yet another way to apply the TeX formatting command to a Texinfo file
 is to put that command in a "local variables list" at the end of the
 Texinfo file.  You can then specify the `tex' or `texi2dvi' commands as
 a `compile-command' and have Emacs run it by typing `M-x compile'.
 This creates a special shell called the `*compilation*' buffer in which
 Emacs runs the compile command.  For example, at the end of the
 `gdb.texinfo' file, after the `@bye', you could put the following:
 
      Local Variables:
      compile-command: "texi2dvi gdb.texinfo"
      End:
 
 This technique is most often used by programmers who also compile
 programs this way; see  Compilation (emacs)Compilation.
