When running the command
/usr/bin/xdg-open /home/cochard/tmp/scr.pdf
from a standard linux terminal or a shell terminal within emacs (M-x
shell) the file is open with evince. However nothing happens if doing
it from an eshell terminal (M-x eshell).
Also if I visit (C-x C-f) the file in emacs, it is displayed properly;
the modeline says '(DocView)'
If I add the line
(setq process-connection-type nil)
to my minimal .emacs, then, upon 'C-c C-e l o', the file does open,
although not within emacs -- but with evince. So it does not fully
solve the problem, but it is already a rather decent workaround for
me. Thanks a lot!
