Evince PDF viewer replaced with Papers

We have lamented the one-pixel-wide window border around Evince, that cannot be overridden by the window manager. This is the gtk3-based app in the Debian package repository. I have compiled the gtk2-based version, available as a PET package installable via PKGget (named evince0), which does have a sane window border.

There is a workaround, by holding down a certain key, the mouse pointer can resize the Evince window; but not long after learning that in the forum, forgot how to do it.

Problem now solved, have dropped Evince, replaced with Papers:

Papers also overrides the window manager drawing of window border; however, it does draw the border more than one-pixel thick, making resizing with mouse easy.

Papers will be in the next release of EasyOS, coming soon.
