Re: Evince as universal "Viewer"

[Jeroen Zwartepoorte <jeroen zwartepoorte gmail com>]

Please, there's a reason why the bonobo approach to gpdf died. Don't
try to resurrect it.

Having a PDF viewer that is *really good* at
displaying/searching/browsing/whatever a PDF is worth more to me than
an application that displays multiple types of documents *ok*.

Please don't turn this into a mega thread again that most people just skip...
