- With 'strings pageview' I can tell that the program can respond
- to a tooltalk protocol. Does anyone know what message format needs to be
- broadcasted for a pageview to accept it and display a postscript file?
-
- I'm interested for two reasons:
-
- filemgr: if you open a ps file, a new pageview program is started;
- that's usually slow. Loading a new ps file instead would be faster.
-
- tex/latex & emacs: Same concept from a different environment.
- From emacs, it's very easy to invoke tex, latex, bibtex, or dvips.
- It would be even more convevient to send a tooltalk msg to pageview
- for a quick preview.
