One can launch GUI programs, for example,
gv
or xpdf
from vifm
in background in vifm
's command line:
:!gv %f &
However, if gv
is launched by pressing Enter on a file like aPSfile.ps in vifm
, it blocks the vifm
. Is it possible to run it in the background as well when it is launched this way? The following setup in vifmrc
does not work:
FILETYPE=PS=ps,eps,epsi=gv &
My current solution is to run vifm
in GNU screen
. gv
launched by pressing Enter will run in a new screen instead of blocking vifm
. However, I'd like to save that screen as well...
