One thing he asked is what I was asking you: it
would be useful if there were a way to sync in the other direction as
well.
You mean sort of trying to deduce from the synctex file where to go in
the pdf?
Yes. You provide a .tex file and a line number, and maybe also an
optional column number, and mtxrun outputs a .pdf file, a page number
and a coordinate pair or bounding box (I don't know what the best output
is).
define 'tex file' ... is that the master file? in that case we're
talking about the 'foo.synctex file' because how does a tex file knows
what pdf is related?
Good point. I don't know how/if searching from source to PDF works in
TeXShop when the source is split into several files.
