12.1.1; Forward search view command needs quotes around source file name |
|
Date: |
Fri, 30 Mar 2018 14:48:30 -0600 |
I'm using AucTeX on windows with the SumatraPDF viewer and noticed a
problem with forward search. I'm editing a file whose name contains
spaces and the view command AucTeX generates is:
SumatraPDF -reuse-instance -forward-search file name.tex 426 "file name.pdf"
This confuses SumatraPDF (I think it thinks the file is "file", the line
number is "name.tex" and then additionally tries to open a file named
"426"). With quotes around "file name.tex" it works correctly:
SumatraPDF -reuse-instance -forward-search "file name.tex" 426 "file name.pdf"
I think that maybe the %b placeholder, which expands to a file name
relative to the master file's directory, should always be surrounded in
quotes. (I'm not sure that's actually the best fix for this.) So, as a
workaround, I've added this to my configuration:
(setq TeX-expand-list
'(("%b" (lambda () (format "\"%s\""
(TeX-current-file-name-master-relative))))))
