You need to change the permissions. This works for me (although the window size is not ideal (for my monitor): $ ls -al evince-patched -rwxrwxr-- 1<snipped> 214 Sep 7 18:06 evince-patched Test link: <https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw4.pdf> Clicking on that link evokes the shell 'evince-patched' and presents the pdf document in evince. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
