Default pdf viewer

[lh-astro]

First of all, thank you for this package!

zotxt used to work very good in connection with pdf-tools (https://github.com/flatwhatson/pdf-tools) in doom emacs. Since an update about a month ago C-c " a doesn't open pdf-tools but the systemd default pdf-viewer instead. Is there a way to change this or set which pdf viewer should be used?

Thank you! I don't think I've changed anything in zotxt. It uses org-open-file to open the file, so the documentation for that function should explain more on what it's doing. Of course, it's possible I did change something, but I haven't made many changes to the code base recently.

Faced the same issue in Doom Emacs. The external link zotxt supplies is of file type, not pdf, hence Org was opening pdf files with the system default pdf viewer (which is the default set by Org).

Adding this line to config.el solved it for me.

(add-to-list 'org-file-apps '("\\.pdf\\'" . emacs))

Excellent, thanks for the tip!
