> Anyway, as far as I can tell you can add xdvi and ggv (gnome xdvi is primarily for dvi files, as it's pretty non-existant altogether. I wouldn't bother using it for anything else (athena isn't really much good, gv is the only app I know which has a decent athena style).

Took some searching, seems one has to "force override page size". In summary, nice ideas but doesn't really work. Me thinks I'll stick with gv for a little while longer, until KDE/Gnome have caught up. See my post on nzlug for bzip2 extension for gv. > Actually, I've just fooled around with xpdf and KEdit, and I can't > seem to paste from xpdf to My guess is all that the selection in xpdf does is invert the screen pixels, it doesn't look like it's got any idea about any text being there, as evidenced by tha fact that it doesn't copy anything into any clipboard buffers.
