[Okular-devel] [PATCH] Re: how to invoke okular with inverse search with pdf?

[Oliver Heins]

Hello Jochen, 

thank you very much for the help.  Forward Search now works with okular,
within the limitations of the two bugs.

There is a little problem with your emacs-setup: If you have tex-files
in subfolders, the fully qualified url is calculated wrong.  For
instance, I have the main document ./diss.tex which includes several
files from ./Chapters/.  When I start forward-search from emacs, I will
get something like 

okular --unique file:///home/kde-devel/diss/Chapters/diss.pdf#src:231Chapters/Chapter11.tex

This should be

okular --unique file:///home/kde-devel/diss/diss.pdf#src:231Chapters/Chapter11.tex

It looks to me, like a default directory for `expand-file-name' should
be set, probably from `TeX-master-file'.  This seems to do the job:

(defun Okular-make-url () (concat
   "file://"
   (expand-file-name (funcall file (TeX-output-extension) t)
                     (file-name-directory (TeX-master-file)))
   "#src:"
   (TeX-current-line)
   (TeX-current-file-name-master-relative)))

Best regards,
 olli
