Subject: bug#36357: Wrong Ghostscript program name on MS Win
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2020 19:51:45 +0200 [thread overview]

Thanks Arash for also looking into it, but part of the patch seems to
be unnecessary. I'm writing about these lines:
# ;; The GS wrapper coming with TeX Live
# ((executable-find "rungs.exe")
# "rungs")
# ;; The MikTeX builtin GS
# ;; Check if mgs is functional for external non-MikTeX apps. Was
# ;; available under:
# ;;
http://blog.miktex.org/post/2005/04/07/Starting-mgsexe-at-the-DOS-Prompt.aspx
# ((and (executable-find "mgs.exe")
# (= 0 (shell-command
# (concat (shell-quote-argument (executable-find "mgs.exe"))
# " -q -dNODISPLAY -c quit"))))
# "mgs")
They probably belong to AUCTeX only and do nothing in Doc-view. So
they should be removed.
I also looked into doc-view.el and right under this variable I found
"defcustom doc-view-pdfdraw-program", which looks exactly like
something we are (may be?) looking for.
To sum things up "doc-view-ghostscript-program" could look like this:
(defcustom doc-view-ghostscript-program
(cond
((executable-find "gswin64c.exe") "gswin64c")
((executable-find "gswin32c.exe") "gswin32c")
(t "gs"))
"Program to convert PS and PDF files to PNG."
:type 'file
:version "27.1")
PS If it's alright could it be installed in 27.1? It's not that big
of a change.
S. U.
