Supported Editors
<app>Gedit</app>

Forward Search (from Gedit to Evince) and Backward search (from Evince to Gedit) are both supported.

Vim-latex

The Gedit plugin contains a python script (evince_dbus.py) that can be used to get Synctex working with Vim. In order to use vim-latex together with Evince you need to follow the next steps:

Copy the evince_dbus.py to some directory in your path and give it +x permissions.

Modify your ~/.vimrc file and add the following lines.

let g:Tex_ViewRule_pdf = 'evince_dbus.py' let g:Tex_DefaultTargetFormat = 'pdf' let g:Tex_CompileRule_pdf = 'pdflatex --synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode $*'

Now you can use Forward search from vim-latex by typing \ls. Backward search is not yet supported.
