How to get working xpdf in Alpha Netscape 4.7
Originally posted on debian-alpha@lists.debian.org
Hi:
This is probably the wrong list, but in Netscape 4.7, how does one get
working Netscape applications? Are they not supported on Alpha version
of this
product? It seems that other platforms (VMS, Win, &c) all one does is
update the Netscape applications entry.
I'm trying to add xpdf. I've tried /usr/bin/xpdf, xpdf %s, /usr/bin/xpdf
%s, &c all to no avail. I also tried an application definition along the
lines
of "xpdf %s /dev/null 2>&1" but this also produces no results. There are
no other examples of applications in the Netscape distribution. xpdf
does work, and is installed in /usr/bin.
I've tried loading a pdf using "open page", but all I get is "document
loaded" message, a blank screen, no xpdf window.
Could this be a privlege issue? Perhaps lusers don't get applications
under Netscape... I'm going to investigate this line of attack.
tia,
