Dear fellows,
it looks as if I have wasted my time again trying to make texexec
--autopdf work on Panther (Mac OS X 10.3). I found out that Adobe
Reader 7.0 and Apple's Preview.app are not (Apple-)scriptable, so
reloading the pdffile don't work with these two.
TeXshop's previewer is scriptable, and I was able to write a small
script that opens and reloads the file while keeping the view when a
document got typeset with texexec. Yeah, I was happy, because this is
a nice feature.
Then I found out that TeXshop already has this feature built in (same
with TeXniscope), and there is no need for --autopdf on the Mac.
