Re: texdoc --view termination behavior

Could you set the env var from the calling program?

Subject: [MiKTeX] texdoc --view termination behavior

texdoc --view behaves differently depending on if the MIKTEX_VIEW_*|environment variable is set.

If not set, texdoc calls the appropriate viewer and exits.
If set, the texdoc process stays open until the viewer is closed.

This behavior different behavior is quite inconvenient, when controlling and checking the call from another program. Is it possible to make texdoc start a detached process for the viewer and immediately exit even if the MIKTEX_VIEW_* variables are set?

Thanks,
Tim
