:LLPStartPreview hangs and freezes terminal #92

Expected behavior

I would expect that after running :LLPStartPreview, the preview window will appear and I can see my changes made in the VIM editor.

Actual behavior

I run :LLPStartPreview, and the terminal freezes and hangs. I can't type any additional commands, and no window appears. I'm using iTerm2. Even in my original terminal, nothing happens except I get notifications that terminal would like to access photos, contacts and calendar.

Steps to reproduce

System configuration

This may help someone going forward working on Mac OS X. I did a couple things to get this to work. I followed this to install macvim so that I did not have +python/dyn as a plugin:

Then I installed evince. I believe those two things fixed my issues. Hope this helps someone.
