[AUCTeX] forward/inverse search

[Bjørn Haagensen]

Hi,

I was wondering about the current state on forward/inverse search in
multifile documents? Is it supposed to work? I've got it working for
single-file documents. But there seems to be a number of problems in
multifile documents. Since I don't know whether support is complete, I'll
just briefly describe them for now (as I see them).

-The source-specials seems to get included only in the "region" .dvi file,
thus there are no mappings between the original .tex file and the
.dvi-file being previewed. Backward search works between the region .dvi
and .tex file but forward search does not and results in the error messate:

'xdvi-motif.bin: Fatal error: ~/CVS/work/main.dvi: No such file.'

-Backward search works from the master .dvi file, but forward search
results in the error message

'xdvi-motif.bin: Fatal error: ~/CVS/work/main.dvi: No such file.'

If it's supposed to be working I'll be happy to provide more elaborate
error descriptions.
