With the help of Stephan Witt and Udicoudco, I am now using Skim to open the
pdf files produced by LyX. But I want to add SyncTeX to that.
I configured LyX and Skim according to what is written in the wiki page
(https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/SyncTeX) but I am not sure if everything is set up
correctly or no, since I don't know how to initiate SyncTeX to work. I double
clicked a word of text in Skim and nothing happened (no change of active window
to LyX).
How does one uses SyncTeX with skim?
Thanks very much for your help!
