Under Internet Explorer I was able to do it by telling IE to use the cygwin gv to open .ps files. I do, however, have two problems: 1) When I open a ps file I always get an empty windows command window. That is, I end up with two windows, the gv window I like, and another one I need to minimize. Is there a way to tell IE to use the sygwin gv without opening another window? 2) All this is working only if I start IE from a cygwin terminal. Is there a way to tell IE to use the cygwin gv even if I start IE in the usual way, that is, by clicking on the IE shortcut on the desktop? Thanks a lot for any advice.
