Why do you think so? AUCTeX has been supporting source specials for a long time and SyncTeX is a similar functionality. > As I am sure you know, one will also need scripts when > using Skim[1] or Sumatra pdf[2].

In case you are talking about forward search, you can advise e.g. Evince to open a certain page by providing a command line option. >> What did you try so far?

Probably because Evince did not support this kind of highlighting at the time I implemented the SyncTeX parser. But it should not be hard to add that. But if Evince opens the right page, then SyncTeX support in AUCTeX is working, contrary to what you claimed before. -- Ralf _______________________________________________ auctex mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex
