,----[ C-h v tex-dvi-view-command RET ]
| tex-dvi-view-command's value is nil
|
| Documentation:
| *Command used by M-x tex-view to display a `.dvi' file.
| If this string contains an asterisk (`*'), that is replaced by the file name;
| otherwise, the file name, preceded by blank, is added at the end.
|
| This can be set conditionally so that the previewer used is suitable for the
| window system being used. For example,
|
| (setq tex-dvi-view-command
| (if (eq window-system 'x) "xdvi" "dvi2tty * | cat -s"))
|
| would tell M-x tex-view to use xdvi under X windows and to use dvi2tty
| otherwise.
|
| Defined in `loaddefs.el'.
