Evince will likely need to be able to call emacsclient or something. Ubuntu and apparmor are conspiring to make that hard. Try looking at <URL:http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/usage/configuring-the-system-for-point-and-click> for some inspiration of what kind of jiggery-pokery might be required to get this to work. The application/executable naming schemes of LilyPond are different from that of Emacs/AUCTeX, but the kind of work needed for getting this off the ground might be related, except for the stuff that is sent over Dbus. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ bug-auctex mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex
