I've been subscribed to the mactex mailing list for a while now, but  
I must be missing something. How do I get this beta? And is it in the  
standard format where a preference pane can be used to switch back  
and forth between different distributions?

Now, apart from that, am I correct that all textmate would need to do  
once it detects the presence of synctex, is to signal to the viewer  
in the exact same way that it did for pdfsync?
