Enrico Forestieri a8b7e0a18b Add some postscript and pdf viewers for Unix and Windows.
For Windows: AcroRd32, SumatraPDF and gsview (both 32 and 64 bit versions).
For Unix: qpdfview.

Qpdfview is a nice alternative to Okular for KDE users and a superior
alternative to Evince for Gnome users, due to its complete synctex
support. It only depends on Qt libraries for the graphical interface.

This file describes what has been done in the preparation of LyX 2.1.2.
All comments are welcome.
We try to group things by topic and in decreasing order of importance.
Please feel free to re-arrange if that seems like a good idea.
All of these fixes have already been checked into the 2.1.x branch of
LyX's git repository. The repository can be cloned via:
git clone git://git.lyx.org/lyx
For more details on how to use the repository, please visit:

A list of bugs fixed for this release can also be found at:

as well as a list of bugs still targeted to the 2.1.2 release.
