A new version of Latex Watch is available, which fixes a number of bugs. It's available here:

Latex Watch takes a lot of the hassle out of using Latex, by quickly updating the document preview whenever you save a change to your source file. It saves you having to manually recompile all the time, and it's also quite a bit faster too. See the included help file for more details.

Changes since 2.4:

- Delete .watcher_pid file on exit. (I think this was broken by 2.3.) - Fix bug introduced in 2.4 that broke TeXShop updating. - Use a sanitised name for the .foo.* files, because format names containing spaces don't seem to work (so we would fail for filenames with spaces in). - Change into the working directory, rather than using the full path, to avoid problems caused by special characters in the name of some ancestor directory. - Quote Applescript strings, so that filenames containing special characters (backslash and double quote) will not cause Applescript errors. (They do still cause problems with PDFSync in Skim: see https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=941981&aid=1753415...) - Catch the obscure case where the filename ends in ".tex\n", which would previously cause mysterious-looking problems. - Remove the 'hide extension' attribute on the .tex file, if TeXShop is used as the viewer, otherwise updating will fail for interesting reasons that I won't go into here.
