Re: Please install: Some improvements to doc-view.el

[Richard Stallman]

    It was taken out because the mechanism for invoking external viewers
    should be replaced by the one that Gnus already uses.  Unfortunately
    that didn't happen and no real discussion followed.

It would be a good thing to have just one such mechanism: either
the one Gnus uses, or doc-view.  If we choose doc-view, then we
should make Gnus use it.

What are the arguments in favor of doc-view?

Does someone want to argue in favor of the mechanism that Gnus uses?
