Its value is ‘latex-mode’ Original value was ‘fundamental-mode’ Local in buffer test.tex; global value is fundamental-mode Symbol for current buffer’s major mode. The default value (normally ‘fundamental-mode’) affects new buffers. A value of nil means to use the current buffer’s major mode, provided it is not marked as "special". Automatically becomes buffer-local when set. You can customize this variable. Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 29.1.
