In MkIV (since I don't know when) you You can run context use the <code>--synctex jobname</code> switch to use enable SyncTeX.
== MkII ==With a ConTeXt version > 2009.06.13 So in MkIV you can run texexec context --synctex jobnamethat will create a file <codei>jobname.synctex.gz</codei>.The commandand in MkII you can use ctxtools --purge --allor next run without texexec --synctex will remove the file again.<i>jobname</i>
Updated SyncTeX for MKIV
'''SyncTeX''' is a program that puts a lot of anchors in the output file that link to the corresponding position in the source file. This allows you to quickly jump from PDF to source.
== MkIV Usage ==
Alternatively you can add one of the following commands to your MkIV document:<texcode>\setupsynctex[state=start,method=min] % clickable words\setupsynctex[state=start,method=max] % more efficient clickable ranges</texcode> This will create a file <code><i>jobname</i>.synctex</code>. The command context --purgeor next run without <code>--synctex</code> will remove the file again. To see what became clickable, use one of<texcode>\enabletrackers[system.synctex.visualize]\enabletrackers[system.synctex.visualize=real]</texcode> This file can be used by your editor and PDF viewer to display jump back and forth between the proper filesource and the PDF.
== Editors & Viewers ==
You may need to modify the command for executing ConTeXt first (you need to add <code>--synctex</code> switch in preferences).
=== Evince , Okular & Kile ===Okular (the KDE PDF viewer) and Evince (the GNOME PDF viewerone) supports support SyncTeX . (The latter since version 2.32.0.) To forward something from a text editor to Okular, do okular --unique '${pdffile}#src:${linenumber} ${texfile}' Kile’s (the KDE TeX IDE) ForwardPDF function should support SyncTeX, but it doesn’t seem to work with ConTeXt at the time of writing
=== Skim.app & TextMate (Mac OS X) ===
