+<builder name="DVI">
+<summary>
+Builds a <filename>.dvi</filename> file
+from a <filename>.tex</filename>,
+<filename>.ltx</filename> or <filename>.latex</filename> input file.
+If the source file suffix is <filename>.tex</filename>,
+&scons;
+will examine the contents of the file;
+if the string
+<literal>\documentclass</literal>
+or
+<literal>\documentstyle</literal>
+is found, the file is assumed to be a LaTeX file and
+the target is built by invoking the &cv-link-LATEXCOM; command line;
+otherwise, the &cv-link-TEXCOM; command line is used.
+If the file is a LaTeX file,
+the
+&b-DVI;
+builder method will also examine the contents
+of the
+<filename>.aux</filename>
+file and invoke the &cv-link-BIBTEX; command line
+if the string
+<literal>bibdata</literal>
+is found,
+start &cv-link-MAKEINDEX; to generate an index if a
+<filename>.ind</filename>
+file is found
+and will examine the contents
+<filename>.log</filename>
+file and re-run the &cv-link-LATEXCOM; command
+if the log file says it is necessary.
+
+The suffix <filename>.dvi</filename>
+(hard-coded within TeX itself)
+is automatically added to the target
+if it is not already present.
+Examples:
+
+<example>
+# builds from aaa.tex
+env.DVI(target = 'aaa.dvi', source = 'aaa.tex')
+# builds bbb.dvi
+env.DVI(target = 'bbb', source = 'bbb.ltx')
+# builds from ccc.latex
+env.DVI(target = 'ccc.dvi', source = 'ccc.latex')
+</example>
