How is lisp code run with eval-buffer different from lisp code called by
a function with respect to permissions? I mean, how can the
(dbus-call-method ...)
above work, but calling
(defun TeX-evince-sync-view ()
(dbus-call-method ...))
doesn't.
Thomas, here's something you could try as well. Inside the auctex
buffer (the TeX-master file, if you have a multi-file doc), do
M-: (let ((file (file-name-nondirectory
(file-name-sans-extension
(buffer-file-name)))))
(TeX-evince-sync-view))
Does that work?
Now, this actually works - sort of. At least it brings up evince showing
the document. However, it also opens a buffer, *Backtrace* in Emacs, saying:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (dbus-error "Message did not receive a
reply (timeout by message bus)")
dbus-call-method(:session "org.gnome.evince.Daemon"
"/org/gnome/evince/Daemon" "org.gnome.evince.Daemon" "FindDocument"
"file:///home/tha/sparsig-private/kursus/p%c3%a6dagogikum2011-2013/modul5/module5.pdf"
t)
TeX-evince-sync-view()
(let ((file (file-name-nondirectory (file-name-sans-extension
(buffer-file-name))))) (TeX-evince-sync-view))
eval((let ((file (file-name-nondirectory
(file-name-sans-extension (buffer-file-name)))))
(TeX-evince-sync-view)) nil)
eval-expression((let ((file (file-name-nondirectory
(file-name-sans-extension (buffer-file-name)))))
(TeX-evince-sync-view)) nil)
call-interactively(eval-expression nil nil)
Furthermore, evince blocks Emacs while open. I cannot interact with
Emacs until I close the evince window again.
Thanks,
Thomas
