I had variously only the pdfsync file or both. Both /should/ have been up-to-date in the latter case.

That's the last bit that'll allow me to keep my beloved vim for latex work :) > You should use either PDFSync or SyncTeX, not both. You sort of use That's what I've learned.

It /seemed/ alright here. So it wouldn't be unheard of for Skim to silently do nothing in a dilemma (instead of giving an error message)? Not complaining, just getting used to the tool. I've been through quite a few PDF readers for OS X these last days. Skim is definitely my favorite so far. Extensive osascript capabilites count, but an active user community (in form of this list) counts much more.
