you can play with
mtxrun --script synctex
and the synctex file to see if it makes sense
one problem with synctex is that the editors depend on a library and
there has been changes
texshop now uses the more independent method for context i.e. just
calling "mtxrun --script synctex ..." which not only removes the
dependency of a library (the dependency on mtxrun is ok as one has
context anyway) but also permits room for improvement (apart from not
being tricked by latex specific heuristics in the library)
