Hello all,
Is it possible to open a PDF file (after compilation of ConTeXt) in
other PDF viewer which is not the default setting?
I mean change the default choice:
context --autopdf file.tex
to another, for example:
context --viewer=PDFViewer file.tex
I would like to retain the default browser settings, but I would like
after ConTeXt compilation opened the files with something else.
Thanx Jaroslav

the log mentions:
MTXrun | pdfview methods: default okular xpdf, current method: default,
MTX_PDFVIEW_METHOD=<unset>
so you can set the method
i could extend --autopdf to accept a method

Thanx Hans,
I have ConTeXt in TL2010 ...
Settings are made in MTX-context.lua or l-pdfview.lua?
It is necessary to refresh the settings by luatools --generate or
something like?
Jaroslav
Settings in l-pdfview.lua is (only part):
pdfview = pdfview or { }
local opencalls = {
['default'] = "pdfopen --file", -- "pdfopen --back --file"
['xpdf'] = "xpdfopen",
}
local closecalls= {
['default'] = "pdfclose --file",
['xpdf'] = nil,
}
local allcalls = {
['default'] = "pdfclose --all",
['xpdf'] = nil,
}
if os.type == "windows" then
opencalls['okular'] = 'start "test" "c:/program
files/kde/bin/okular.exe" --unique' -- todo: get focus
else
opencalls['okular'] = 'okular --unique'
end
pdfview.METHOD = "MTX_PDFVIEW_METHOD"
pdfview.method = getenv(pdfview.METHOD) or 'default'
pdfview.method = (opencalls[pdfview.method] and pdfview.method) or 'default'
function pdfview.methods()
return table.concat(table.sortedkeys(opencalls), " ")
end

No clue as I don't have tl 2010 installed (and no time now to put it in
a vm). You can try to set the environment variable:
MTX_PDFVIEW_METHOD
Adapting scripts directly that come with context is not a good idea as
changes will be lost with an update.
A next version of context will also accept --autopdf=<method>
Some day I might also support configuration in texmfcnf.lua.
