i just set up the interface with X11 to view dvi files with xdvi.
the viewer is great because it's much quicker than preview and is
easy to update.
the reverse search sounds interesting, but i'm not sure how it's
supposed to work in lyx? i edited my latex -> converter so it
includes the source-specials tag (latex --src-special $$i), but
when i ctrl-click from within xdvik, nothing happens. i thought
that reverse searching meant i could click on the dvi file and the
cursor within lyx would go to the clicked location. am i
misunderstanding something? i got the impression from the wiki that
i can do reverse searching between lyx and xdvi. is this possible
and what is the exact syntax to configure? finally, if it's
possible to do reverse searching, can one do forward searching with
lyx too?
i'm running lyx 1.4.4 on mac.
You need to set up xdvi as well. See the wiki, here:
