Description
hi,
I just discovered micro and love it so far.
I'm trying to use it as a latex editor with, say zathura, as a pdf viewer.
I succeeded to bind a compil key by adding in bindings.json:
"F5": "Save,command:run latexmk -pdfps",
But I can't even launch zathura to open the compiled pdf, because I don't find something like %f or %filename in all the micro docs.
What I want to achieve is a bi-dir synctex search between micro and zathura.
I can open micro at the correct position from zathura but how do I do the reverse ?
thx

Start with the bindings.json command shown in the issue and the micro documentation on command arguments or filename expansion. Check how latexmk and zathura are expected to interact, including the reverse SyncTeX path from zathura to micro. Done means the supported workflow and required changes are clearly scoped, or the limitation is documented.
