Post by David RomanoThanks everyone for your suggestions. I've found that my troubles seem to
come from the following.
1) There seem to be two choices for customizing Aquamacs Emacs: Changing
one's .emacs file or using the Customization menu and entering the
appropriate information for the appropriate variables.
At present, I have no .emacs file and am a little worried I'd mess
things up if I create one. (I can copy someone else's but I would simply
be operating as a human cut-and-paste function -- I have no understanding
of Lisp.) In terms of the customization menu approach, I can mimic what I
see in the default variable values, but I don't know what I'm doing there
either: e.g., I installed PDFView and inserted the following in the
Extension: ^pdf$
Choice: Value Menu Regexp: ^PDFView$
Command: open -a PDFView.app %o.
So in either case, ignorance is the problem, and reading the
manuals and archived list messages is only slightly ameliorating it.
It's certainly true that the documentation in the customizations menu
gives you some information, but it can be very difficult to parse. In
your case, you should change the line:
Choice: Value Menu Regexp: ^PDFView$
to
Choice: Value Menu Regexp: .
(a period instead of ^PDFView$). Then, be sure to push the "Save for
future sessions" button near the top of the customizations. FYI, the
"Choice: Value Menu Regexp: ..." is meant to match against options in
the documentclass. The idea is more relevant for dvi output than pdf
where emacs tries to figure out the page size and orientation so that
the dvi viewer will give you the correct layout.
Post by David Romano2) A more fundamental(?) problem may be that my machine is running OS
10.3.9, and so PDFView and Skim may simply not be avaible to me as
alternatives to Preview. Are there others that would be?
If PDFView and Skim do not work on 10.3.9 then you could do as either
Alex or Peter suggested and try Texniscope of TexShop in the "Command:
" portion of the customization menu.
