Not all system have the same programs at the same place. When did you
last check that my tru64 system has gv in /usr/bin (hint: it does
not).
We check for some programs, but obviously we miss some. If you want to
help, you can send a list of possible viewers for each format, along
with a discussion of how to order them.
Currently it is not possible to use mozilla (which needs a complete
file: URL), but it should not be difficult to fix.
