Thank you \input{filename} does work with skim pdfsync and
aquamacs. Cmd-Shft cick will take me back to the beginning of a line near the word where I clicked.

In OS9 I used program designed by a friend, Arthur Ogus, which would usually take me from a word in a typeset textures document to the exact word in the tex file. This program does ot work in OSX and will not be upgraded. l Is this something some future version of pdfsync will do?

Skim does support pdfsync for multi-file projects. though it depends
on what pdfsync does with it. And I don't know if pdfsync properly
handles \input, perhaps it only works with \include. So the short
answer is: this is a question about pdfsync and latex, not Skim. If
pdfsync can handle it, Skim can, and if pdfsync can't handle it, Skim
can't.

BTW, if you use latex you shouldn't use \input to start with. That's
really bad practice, and if things don't work because of it you have
only yourself to blame (unless you collaborate, than you can blame
your collaborators).

Actually there's nothing wrong with \input{filename}, it is I believe
well documented and part of LaTeX, and it differs from \include in
the fact that it does not try a \clearpage. I couldn't find a
reference right now, but I believe that "\input filename" is actually
a different command, and that is the "TeX" one that one might want to
avoid, and that's the one that pdfsync definitely does not follow.
But pdfsync will follow \input{filename}, as a simple example can show.

So if the OP is using \input{filename}, it should work.
