Hm, yes, there's something strange. although I get it more the other way round: If I set acroread in ~/.mailcap and /usr/bin/see in JabRef's Options/Preferences/External programs/Manage external file types/pdf I get: * Tools/Open file: a PDF in acroread * right click on the line/open PDF: nothing * right click on the PDF icon/file name: acroread Hm? That was the second test run, during the first I sometimes got xpdf ... Ok, third test: * Tools/Open file: nothing * right click on the line/open PDF: nothing * right click on the PDF icon/file name: acroread More like your results. I'm BCC'ing upstream, maybe they can shed some light on this issue.
