BTW, what confused me a bit is your wording. Emacs calls the WM windows, i.e., the things with the menu/tool-bar and window decorations "frames". Windows in emacs are the panes that display a buffer which you can split with C-x 2 and C-x 3. So your problem is that after clicking in Evince, all (single) windows of your two emacs frames show the buffer of the tex file from which the pdf was generated. > I made some screenshots to show better what happens: In > https://www.mpp.mpg.de/~inaki/auctex1.png I opened a couple of tex > files (draft5.tex and BC-O5.tex), and the pdf corresponding to one of > them (draft5.pdf).

Ah, what a luck that you included the terminal window in the screenshot! Now I know what the problem is. You fire up two emacs instances, i.e., two completely separate emacs processes. When Evince sends the SyncSource signal via DBUS, both emacs processe will receive it and act accordingly, i.e., pop to the corresponding tex buffer. There is no (simple) way that these two separate emacs processes could talk to each other in order to negotiate which one should open the file. Since a few years, one single emacs process can have arbitrarily frames no matter if graphical or tty frames. You start emacs once, and when you want to, you can open another frame using `C-x 5 2'. Then use one frame for document1, the other for document2, yet another one for document3. And then, because there is only one single emacs process, inverse search with Evince will magically work. :-) This one emacs, many frames thingy is documented in (info "(emacs)Emacs Server") Bye, Tassilo (Embeddings for the non-toric Pezzo singularities, what?!?) :-) _______________________________________________ bug-auctex mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex
