I started writing that mode and basically it works. I need to fix some things before it's really usable, but I think I can post it tomorrow. :-) Bye, Tassilo ___ gnu-emacs-sources mailing list gnu-emacs-sources@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-emacs-sources

Indeed I wanted to write something like that for quite some time, but I never did so... Anyway, you could make it even better by making it a generic viewer for DVI, PostScript and PDF files. ImageMagick's `convert' tool can convert any of those formats to PNG. $ convert bar.png converts every page to a file bar-X.png in /some/dir/ where X is a number starting with 0 (page 1). I'm pretty sure that convert has an option to crop parts of the margins of the pdf/ps/dvi files, so that you can make best use of the emacs window's space. What do you think?
