[TxMt] Re: Latex Bundle: Skim 1.2 and pdfsync

[Charilaos Skiadas]

Thanks for the report Mark, I've made the relevant change to  
texMate.py. For some reason I kept no getting errors when trying to  
commit, so it's not up in the official cite yet, but hopefully soon.  
The -r flag thing sounds interesting, I suppose it means we might not  
have to call applescript as we currently do.
