unhappy?
I run gdb with breakpoint set on zathura/synctex.c:86 and while
`synctex_get_input_line_column` returns true, `input_file` is `NULL` so the
"else" branch is executed. That is all I managed to debug, I don't know how
I
could step into the SyncTeX function.

For me it generated a slightly smaller file:

Similarly to previous examples, `mtxrun --script synctex --list
oeps.synctex`
only showed me that much:
```
mtx-synctex | begin page: 1
mtx-synctex | end page: 1
```
When I executed it on your SyncTeX file, it showed one line more:
```
mtx-synctex | begin page: 1
mtx-synctex | [ 71 135 136 149] : 6 : oeps.tex
mtx-synctex | end page: 1
```
Still, with both files Zathura gave me the same error :/. It is really
weird
though, that ConTeXt generated a different SyncTeX file for me for the same
exact file and command.
The versions of ConTeXt and SyncTeX:
```
$ synctex help
This is SyncTeX command line utility, version 1.5
usage: synctex <subcommand> [options] [args]
Synchronize TeXnology command-line client, version 1.21
$ context --version
mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.04
```
> btw, the script approach permits two way sync, so in texshop one can go
from pdf to source and source to pdf
Could you send me the exact commands for that? I can't get any meaningful
output from `mtxrun --script synctex` either. It always prints me just an
empty line. All the options described in usage look like they are for going
to
source code.
