There are many files where I like to use greek letters and other funny math
symbols, via the TeX input method, so I add the following to the end of the
file:

 * Local Variables:
 * eval: (activate-input-method "TeX")
 * End:

and I then added

   (put 'activate-input-method 'safe-local-eval-function t)

to tell Emacs that the above `eval' can be executed without first asking me
for permission.
