I found an even better solution to keeping Skim.app in the background. Rather than switching back to the Terminal after skim updates, one can: open -g -a /Applications/Skim.app $1 The manual page for open says: -g Do not bring the application to the foreground. This way one can continue

Hi, Christiaan I can do that, though of course it's also very simple to do it yourself by deleting a single line. After I posted about displayline with additional option, I found same item in the tracker. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detailaid=1963451group_id=192583atid=941984 I

Why do you need the Option key? The scroll wheels scrolls the view below the cursor (if that view accepts the action, which is true for PDFView), no matter whether it's in the foreground or the background. At least, this is how it behaves for me on 10.6.6. I'm sorry, I was just confused.

Hi, Of course this would not help Patrik, because Aquamacs uses its own script. I think -g may help the third one, if I'm not misunderstanding. It allows to keep focus on Emacs, but update pdf by displayline command. For AUCTeX, one can add the option -g by (setq
