Christiaan, I don't think it's a timing issue, since i) the problem happens when the pdf file is open, and ii) Skim is activated and the cursor goes to the corresponding pdf window, but it doesn't move to the correct line. So I agree with you, it's probably an AppleScript problem.I would be more than glad to test this thing and let you know what the problem is (if I find out;.). Do you have any suggestions as to the possible things to try? (For instance, I tried to execute the displayline script directly from the Terminal, to discard any possible problems with Emacs/auctex, and the behavior was exactly the same).
