Description Gary Young 2006-02-10 15:24:22 UTC

For both gsview-4.6 and 4.7, neither the help menu nor gsview-help gave any results. 

gsview-help produced the following error:

/usr/bin/gsview-help: line 18: mozilla: command not found
/usr/bin/gsview-help: line 21: mozilla: command not found

I don't have the mozilla suite on my system. Creating a mozilla symlink to firefox solved the problem.

The fault may lie in a file in the source code called srcunx/gvxhelp.txt. It references mozilla twice. However, I haven't tried editing the file to see if that would fix the problem.

I may not be able to get to it for a couple of weeks, but I'll give it a shot.
