[OS X TeX] Applescript sync for BBEdit-->TeXniscope

[Claus Gerhardt]

The sync comes frommy script

>> set sourceLine to startLine of selection as number
>> 	set current clipboard to "\\marginpar{sync}" as string
>> 	paste

Then a pdflatex run is initiated, the pdf file is opened in TeXniscope 
at the corresonding line or very close to the the line, and "sync" (a 
later version uses "\\marginpar{\\textcolor{red}{sync}}" which I 
prefer) is written to the marigin in the pdf file, and the 
corresponding command in the source file is removed.
