But you need the cursor for slicing. Ok, I could enable it only for
this command.
But what happens with the tooltips if there's no cursor?

My last patch, that makes doc-view the default viewer for pdf/ps/dvi
files uses only the filename. You can get the patch from my mail
<address@hidden>. There you don't use `doc-view'
anymore, but simply find the file using C-x C-f.

I don't know if that's a good idea. a-r-m checks files periodically and
reverts if something changed. Since "reverting" means reconverting for
doc-view, it's possible that it blows your computer because it may
happen that a new conversion is started before the last one finished
(e.g. every 5 seconds a new conversion is started).
My last patch added a new binding `g' which reconverts the current
document.
Bye,
