I am using the emacs supplied on the TeXLive 7 CD.  I did a quick 
install of TeXLive and all works find except processing an amstex file 
from inside emacs.
I can latex a file by opening the file in emacs clicing on Command and 
from the drop down menu selecting latex.  However, when I select amstex 
from this menu I get the following error message (my file is named 
"matrix.tex"

======================================================================
Running `AmSTeX' on `matrix' with ``amstex
\nonstopmode\input{matrix.tex}''
This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2c 7.3.7x)

AmS-TeX- Version 2.2


! I can't find file `{matrix.tex}'.
<*> \nonstopmode\input{matrix.tex}

Please type another input file name
! Emergency stop.
<*> \nonstopmode\input{matrix.tex}

Thanks for any help provided.
