Hi,
   I wrote this for myself, thought it might be useful for others as well
   and believed this to be the correct mailing list. The patch is against
   the bzr version of somewhere in the last couple of hours.
If anything is missing please tell me,

[Description]

This is a minor mode allowing documents viewed with DocView to be automaticly
refitted to the window they are shown in (no need to hit W/H/P every
time the window size changes).

It is implemented by adding a local hook to window-configuration-change-hook
for the buffer the document is in, which in turn either starts or increases
- if already started - a buffer local timer every time the hook is called.
When the timer runs out, it calls doc-view-fit-[width/height/page]-to-window
according to a buffer local variable.

The timer is used, so that when the hook triggers a lot in a short period
of time it doesn't cause too much overhead (Useful for slower computers).
