In principle it ought to be possible to do something like that, or
zstyle ':mime:.pdf:' handler 'evince %s'
zstyle ':mime:.pdf.gz:' handler 'evince %s'
though the shell doesn't do a search for the longest suffix match at the
moment. I'll try to remember to look into it. You'd need to make sure
there is some rule to handle .gz files even so, or set up the suffix
alias by hand, to ensure zsh-mime-handler runs; alias -s
gz=zsh-mime-handler would be good enough.
