texexec --synctex <i>jobname</i>
Alternatively you can add one of the following command commands to your MkIV document:
<texcode>
\enabledirectivessetupsynctex[system.synctexstate=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.gz</code>. The command
context --purge
or 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 jump back and forth between the source and the PDF.
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) ===
Hopefully this functionality will become part of the official ConTeXt bundle one day. (The recipe given above is too specific. The code needs to be written to handle more different viewers and different locations, not only a single viewer at a specified location.)
