Personally, I prefer using Marked 2 as my previewer. It can handle a wider variety of MD dialects. And while it can't synchronize the cursor, it does annotate the changed spot every time you save.If you want to send in a feature request, the support email is at the bottom of this email.- Steve

Hi--until recently, I used Atom which has a great feature: it synchronises the location of the cursor in the md file with the location shown in the preview of the md file.Is this also possible in BBEdit?Thanks,RainerPS: I moved towards BBEdit, because the startup of Atom was taking ages, because I always added new plugins, which I used once a month... In other words, I was fiddling with it in the same way I did with Emacs before that.

#!/Library/TeX/texbin/pdflatex
pdflatex
In addition to what Patrick mentioned, I’ll add: I don’t think pdflatex is happy writing its output to stdout, or reading from stdin. You might have to write your latex code to a temporary file, call pdflatex, and then open the output file that pdflatex created and send that to stdout.
A simple script to do this would be:
#!/bin/sh
cat > tmp.latex # safe stdin (from bbedit) to a file
pdflatex tmp.latex >/dev/null # throw away pdflatex’s stdout
cat tmp.pdf # send generated pdf file to stdout (back to bbedit)
But the bigger problem is: I don’t think BBEdit can accept PDF data from a preview filter. It wants HTML. It might be possible to embed the PDF output in HTML, but I don’t know how to do that.
Personally I’d just use Skim to view the PDF output. It has an auto-reload function.
Hope this helps.

Christopher,
Can you remind me exactly what you’re trying to do?
Is your goal to open a LaTeX file in BBEdit and select “Preview in BBEdit” to see the PDF document generated by pdflatex?
Thanks.
