First of all, let me thank Peter for his informative and very helpful
posts.  Even if I'm not having the problem being discussed, I still
save your emails for a day I can sit back and read your informative
replies.

With that said, I must disagree with TeXShop.  It just doesn't perform
the way I would expect a native pdf O/S to act when looking at an
updated pdf file.  I came across TeXniscope, and it does an amazing
job like xdvi on X11 and Yap on Windows, but it handles dvi and pdf
very well.  To be honest, I'm not sure about whether it handles dvi
files dynamically, but I know that if I compile the file with pdflatex
file on the command line, I need merely swith back to Techniscope and
its dynamically updated without requiring any input on my behalf.

I would love to learn how to implement the reverse searching with
Carbon emacs, but that's a conversation for another day.  For now, I
just wanted to give my glowing endorsement for this product even
though it's still in beta.  

Again, thank you Peter for all your help on this list.  You and Seiji
truly are assets to Carbon Emacs!
