Oliver, Do you use latexmk.pl by chance? If that is the case then I think I see the path that is causing you the delay. I'll clean that up.

I just noticed something strange concerning the 10s hang when invocating the "Show in PDFViewer (pdfsync)" command. I commented out one paragraph in my Latex document and then hit the above command. After the usual 10s delay, Skim opened and showed me the corresponding section, *without* the part of the text I just commented out *without* having typeset the document before. So it must have somehow typeset the document in the background. I double- checked this behaviour by un-commenting the line again. And again, after running the command, the paragraph was there again, set in the PDF. I don't suppose this command should set the document in the background, does it? Only jump to the location in the PDF. Yours, Oliver ______________________________________________________________________ For new threads USE THIS: <a href="mailto:textmate@lists.macromates.com">textmate@lists.macromates.com</a> (threading gets destroyed and the universe will collapse if you don't) <a href="http://lists.macromates.com/mailman/listinfo/textmate"> http://lists.macromates.com/mailman/listinfo/textmate</a> </blockquote></div> -- Brad Miller Assistant Professor, Computer Science Luther College
