I downloaded the 1.1.13. I didn't have any crashes, although the synctex
wasn't working correctly from textmate -> skim. The reverse search was OK,
so I went back to 1.1.12, which seems to be fine.
In universal access preferences page, I have unchecked the "Enable access
for assistive devices". How can I check which program is using
accessibility? I don't have any anti-virus software on my mac. Should I be
concerned?
