Hi all,

Is there any way to remember the settings last used in the PS/PDF
viewers? I keep changing the zoom to 150% each time I generate output. I
would also love it if I could get to the same page number I was last
looking at.

I'm using kghostview and kpdf.

Maybe keep the one viewer open, overwrite the file, and send it a signal
to revert? I would have thought that particular idea would be really
handy with anybody else working with TeX and constantly regenerating the
same file - maybe a command line switch to cause the viewer to watch for
changes (or accept SIGUSR1 etc.) and pop to the front at the same page
num, zoom setting, window location as before. Only launch a new viewer
if the old process doesn't exist any more.

Should we put in a feature request with kghostview/kpdf to support this
if it isn't there already?

Have fun,
Darren
