More precise: we store _all_ found ones as alternatives, also the selected one. E.g. \viewer pdf kpdf \viewer_alternatives pdf kpdf \viewer_alternatives pdf acroread \viewer_alternatives pdf okular \viewer_alternatives pdf xpdf means: kpdf is selected as viewer, and the combo lists kpdf|acroread|okular| xpdf as predefined choices. > * In the preferences dialog, you can then select from a list of > preconfigured viewers (I've implemented a combo for this).

We just need to store the ones we want to show as \converter, and we would allow multiple \converter's for a given chain. Jürgen
