As per title, I have noticed a significant delay between opening a pdf file and zathura launching when I switched from ranger over to lf. This delay became less painful once I replaced my slow HDD with an SSD, but lf is still noticeably slower than ranger in this regard. Are there ways to mitigate this slight annoyance? If not, at least knowing the reason will satisfy me. |

By default, lf uses xdg-open to start external applications. Instead of xdg-open, you can use "handlr" or rangers "rifle" Just include this in your .bashrc (or whichever shell config you use) |

I noticed a slight delay as well and solved it by setting $OPENER to a different program.

export OPENER=rifle
