If SyncTeX (called from XeTeX via TeXworks) is asked to handle a file with a
U+2019 : RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK {single comma quotation mark} in its name
rather than an apostrophe, it reports the following:
This is XeTeX, Version 3.141592653-2.6-0.999996 (TeX Live 2024) (preloaded
format=xetex)
restricted \write18 enabled.
entering extended mode
(./Men’s Indoor Honours update (ruled).tex (./Men’s indoor honours.dat)
[1] )
Output written on Men’s Indoor Honours update (ruled).pdf (1 page).
SyncTeX written on Men�s Indoor Honours update (ruled).synctex.gz.
Transcript written on Men’s Indoor Honours update (ruled).log.
I am reporting this here based on the following, but cc'ing the XeTeX and
TeXworks lists as I cannot be certain wherein lies the problem —

Hi Ulrike,
http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2009-May/008027.html
Gosh.
Could someone tell me who maintains synctex today (if ever)
Peter B had been maintaining it since the main development was finished.
So I guess I am maintaining it now :(.
Jerome Laurens originally wrote synctex. Although he gave up
maintenance a few years ago, I think I will ask him if he can look at it.
and where to report the issue?
Here was the right place. --thanks, karl.
