* I wanted to add a comment for Akira Kitauchi, but I don't have enough (50) reputations to do it. Hence I put it here. Akira's solution is interesting and does work for me. However, the so-called "forward search" from Emacs (working with a LaTeX file) to Skim (v1.5.5) breaks down. Backward search from Skim to Emacs works fine. Any idea? Edit: Even more interesting! I switched symbolic links to x86_64_10_9 versions (rather than x86_64_10_14 versions as Akira originally suggested). Then both forward and backward search work well. Curiously, what are the differences between the different version

@MassoChailly The different versions are built for different versions of macOS, so if you're on macOS 10.14 (Mojave) or above then you want to use the _10_14 one. macOS 10.9 to 10.13 then _10_9, and so on. Although, to be honest, I wouldn't expect search to break.

Hm...this "worked" for me, in the sense that everything behaves as expected using the Catalina "open" command (or the finder). However, now using emacs from inside a terminal window seems broken.

I also had to use a lower ending number, *_10 in my case, instead of a higher *_14 to get things to work, even when I was on Catalina

Thanks! This happily seems to work for me in macOS Monterey 12.2.1, too. Like @lab, I ran into the command-line emacs issue, and resolved it by replacing my emacs symlink with a small shell script that just invokes /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -nw "$@"
