In the X Window System, xdvi
allows you to view
DVI files, page through documents, zoom in, and perform many
other word processor preview functions. To view DVI files, at the
Unix prompt, enter:
xdvi file.dvi
In the above example, replace file.dvi
with the name of your
file.
For more information about xdvi

To convert a file named file.dvi
to PostScript and view it
