absolute file names in @var{args}, but rather to specify all file
names as relative to @code{default-directory}.  The function
@code{file-relative-name} is useful for constructing such relative
file names.

@defun call-process-region start end program &optional delete destination display &rest args
This function sends the text from @var{start} to @var{end} as
standard input to a process running @var{program}.  It deletes the text
sent if @var{delete} is non-@code{nil}; this is useful when

@defvar process-file-side-effects
This variable indicates, whether a call of @code{process-file} changes
remote files.

Per default, this variable is always set to @code{t}, meaning that a
call of @code{process-file} could potentially change any file on a
remote host.  When set to @code{nil}, a file handler could optimize
its behaviour with respect to remote file attributes caching.

This variable should never be changed by @code{setq}.  Instead of, it
shall be set only by let-binding.
