I took off the suspicious shell-command, and left in .emacs this: (server-start) + the code for forward search. It seems working, but I do not know the full capacity of PDFView. For ex.: When typesetting in emacs by modifying a location, which is not on the currently displayed pdf page, the update of the pdf happens, but PDFView doesn't jump to the corresponding pdf page. I do not know if this is implemented in PDFView or not. Indeed, PDFView takes me to the proper page of the pdf, if I issue C-c C-c to invoke explicitly the View command. Before that, I'd tried substituting do-applescript for osascript: - with the ampersand it didn't pdfview and/or pdfsync didn't work; - without the ampersand, I get: /bin/bash: line 1: do-applescript: command not found Roussanka --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ "Carbon Emacs" group mailing list.
