Ranger: Add Foxit pdf reader to rifle.conf












0















I've Zathura as my default pdf viewer which is fine. I've also installed Foxit Reader but it doesn't show up when I try to open any pdf file in ranger with r key. I tried adding following line in my rifle.conf file:



ext pdf, has FoxitReader X, flag f = FoxitReader -- "$@"



I'm able to open any pdf file with FoxitReader myfile.pdf command.



But still, I'm not able to see Foxit as an option in ranger! I'm not sure what's wrong with the edit I made to my rifle.conf file.
