[OS X TeX] BBEdit/Skim synchronization is not working

[John Rawnsley]

To complicate the issue :), I just checked in 10.11 on my MacBook Air that BBEdit 11.1.3 and Skim 1.4.14 will synchronise in both directions. I don’t have a keystroke assigned to synching BBEdit->Skim so I am placing the cursor in the source text then selecting the AppleScript from the BBEdit AppleScript menu.

You may have conflicting keystrokes defined if it works in TextWrangler and not in BBEdit.

I checked versions of BBEdit back to 11.0.3, and none of them work, although 11.0.3 certainly worked previously. So, this is a very odd situation. I’ve been in contact with Bare Bones Software, and just sent them my latest observations. I haven’t yet contacted the Skim people, I suppose because the last time I did it was kind of a painful process.

So, is it El Capitan, the very recent Skim update, or the very recent BBEdit update? I suppose I could fish older versions of Skim and BBEdit out of Time Machine, but it’s getting late and it will have to wait until tomorrow.
