[TxMt] Re: LaTeX bundle wont stop opening TeXShop

[Angelo Varlotta]

Hi all,
I've noticed this issue too. I'm using TextMate 2.0-beta6 on OS X 10.9.5
with Skim as my preferred viewer as well, and I have the same behavior.
I've tried to uninstall and reinstall the Latex bundle but that doesn't
help. The first time I compile using TextMate and Skim with "Typeset &
View (PDF)", TexShop won't launch. It will start only after the second
Latex compile with "Typeset & View (PDF)". I haven't tried to fiddle
around with refresh_viewer.scpt or latex_watch.pl.

Cheers,
Angelo

Skim is my preferred viewer but every time I render a latex file I get not only the normal operation of Skim either opening or refreshing but also TeXShop opens and displays a blank new file.  I'm not sure why this happens, Skim is the default in my preferences and I tried editing the default viewer in latex_watch.pl but the behavior continues.

The command seems to work fine for me, although I see a small change in the Dock, it grows and shrinks a few pixels, when I run the command. It could be that this growing and shrinking is caused by TeXShop.

You can do that by issuing the following commands inside Terminal:
