Re: [PATCH] Add "open Tex source file" support for evince

[Dongsheng Xing <homer xing yahoo com>]

Hi, Yozo,

  In fact, my patch cope with "DVI source specials".
  SyncTeX and "DVI source specials" are two different technic,　and they achieve the same function.
  SyncTeX works with ".pdf", requiring more disk spaces and PC memory.
  "DVI source specials" works with ".dvi", requiring less disk space and memory.
  Both of them have advantages and disadvantages.
  In my opinion, I wish that evince support both of them. :)
 
  BTW, I myself use xdvi + gedit . Since I cannot view the continuous pages by xdvi, I wrote this patch to improve evince. :)

  Best Regards,
  Homer
