Do you have some sort of agenda (your PDF viewer occasionally says something that interests you) or would it suffice to add 2>/dev/null to the command line. > although > afaict they don't have easy ways for random access to pages. Eh? There's a little box at the foot of the xpdf window which contains the page number. You can focus it with the mouse and edit it, but it's easier to press g. which focuses and selects it, so that you only have to type the page number you want. It also maintains a stack of pages that you've visited which you can run back and forth along with the ⇠ and ⇢ keys. > (There are > also a couple of screen-saver type pdf viewers, pdf-presenter-console being > one with some controls, and pdfcube as well, with i think fewer controls.) Yes, xpdf has a presentation mode which loses the control buttons, but you can set all manner of key bindings yourself, including toggling in and out of that mode if you feel it's necessary. > We'll see what we can do.
