[Vim-latex-devel] Preventing compiler from opening wrong file on error

[Ted P. <te...@te...>]

	Vim has a hard time parsing TeX output of the form...

(file
(file
(file
)))

(i.e., nested output where all of the closing parentheses come on one 
line). So, Vim-LaTeX tends to open the wrong file on compiler errors.

I've put together a simple-to-use script to try to fix this. See:

http://phaseportrait.blogspot.com/2008/03/fixing-vim-latex-compiler-error.html

and, for the script:

http://links.tedpavlic.com/shell_scripts/vimlatex

Then add "vimlatex" to the front of any compiler command you use. For 
example, if you've been executing:

latex blah blah blah

then execute:

vimlatex latex blah blah blah

instead.

	This isn't a new idea. However, it's an idea that's hard to find on the 
web.
