It works almost finely, with some problems: 1. The file.pdf reloads, but this happens (now and then) twice in Skim (very quickly, for this small file) 2. Auto update works, but C-c C-v fails to take me from a location in the file.tex to the corresponding location of file.pdf in Skim, i.e. Emacs -> Skim (C-c C-v) fails. 3. C-c C-v from Skim opens file.dvi instead of file.pdf, regardless that I have set up PDF Mode in Emacs (as a default by having in my .emacs the statement: (setq-default TeX-PDF-mode t) Thanks a lot! it would be good to have it without the two problems, but they are not that bi.
