Hi Hans, Thanks for your attention and the new SyncTeX option: I just made some testing with the beta from today and it seems to work. So for being useful to others, the command I use now in TeXShop and MacOS X is:
#!/bin/bash export PATH=/Volumes/OK/context-minimal/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin:$PATH context --synctex=zipped --autogenerate "$1" --purgeall Best regards: OK > On 08 Apr 2015, at 13:27, Hans Hagen <pra...@wxs.nl> wrote: > > On 4/8/2015 10:43 AM, Otared Kavian wrote: >> Hi Thomas, Mojca and Andreas, >> >> After playing with several options as either of you suggested, I ended up >> with the following setups which solve partially the misbehaviour of SyncTeX >> in mkiv.
