<p>
The <app>gedit</app> plugin contains a python script (<file>evince_dbus.py</file>) that can be used to get SyncTeX working with Vim.
In order to use vim-latex together with the <app>document viewer</app> you need to follow the next steps:
</p>
<steps>
<item>
<p>
Copy the <file>evince_dbus.py</file> to some directory in your path and give it +x permissions.
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
Modify your <file>~/.vimrc</file> file and add the following lines.
</p>
<code>
let g:Tex_ViewRule_pdf = 'evince_dbus.py'
let g:Tex_DefaultTargetFormat = 'pdf'
let g:Tex_CompileRule_pdf = 'pdflatex --synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode $*'
</code>
</item>
<item>
<p>
Now you can use Forward search from vim-latex by typing \ls. Backward search is not yet supported.
