I'd be interested to know what configuration command you're using in
zathura to handle the clicks.
I have checked the way that lilypond-invoke-editor works here just by
typing it at the commandline. You might try the same sort of tests.
$ EDITOR=gvim lilypond-invoke-editor textedit:///tmp/windmills.ly:362:9:10
lilypond-invoke-editor (GNU LilyPond) 2.18.2
E247: no registered server named "GVIM": Send failed. Trying to execute
locally
gives me the file on a local GUI vim. I tried running a server called
VIM and get the same effect, so the name appears invariant.
$ EDITOR=vim lilypond-invoke-editor textedit:///tmp/windmills.ly:362:9:10
lilypond-invoke-editor (GNU LilyPond) 2.18.2
is similar except that the E247 gets lost, possibly because the
non-GUI vim clears the xterm in order to display itself there.
With a GUI or non-GUI server call GVIM running,
$ EDITOR=gvim lilypond…
works as expected, but
$ EDITOR=vim lilypond…
will run vim locally and ignore the server; that is, if the server is
not editing the file already. If the server does have that file open,
then you get a swap file error when it tries to start a local vim.
So I'm pretty confident that lilypond-invoke-editor is doing a good job.
I then tried using zathura as the PDF viewer with:
$ EDITOR=gvim zathura windmills.pdf
having put set synctex-editor-command "lilypond-invoke-editor %s"
into ~/.zathurarc.
Clicking a note seems to have no effect, left, right or centre,
± shift ± control. However, double clicking a note opens my browser,
searching unproductively for the textedit string.

Where do those messages appear?
Do you get those warning/error messages when you click on a note even
if you have already done some (harmless) edit of the file already?
Cheers,
David.
