hyperref xdvi (.djvu file is opened by gThumb but not djview

Post by centguy »

Under linux (CentOS 5.2)
I clicked on a link in a xdvik window so that a djvu file will be opened automatically but the default viewer for this file is set to gThumb by default. How can I change this setting?

The default viewever for .pdf file is set to Evince, so I am okay with pdf files for now. I may want to change the default pdf viewer to acrobat reader.

Thanks for answering my question!

knock knock, anyone?

basically I have
a line in my latex file:

\href{\EBooks/Abook.djvu} {djvu Title: Abook}

After compiling this latex file, a .xdvi file is generated.
I can click on the Abook link on the xdvi window, but then gthumb was
invoked to view the djvu file, which is problematic.

Question is how to customize the things such that djview is used?

For your record, the pdf file is opened by evince, so at least I can read pdf file
very easily.

May be I shall go to other forum to ask similar questions... Thanks!!
