Since the pdf output is generated via the cairo library you would be better off composing it using the wxt terminal, which also uses cairo, rather than the aqua terminal. In that sense the wxt terminal is itself a "live viewer". Otherwise you would have to use a separate program to view your pdf output. If I remember correctly, on a Mac you can use Safari to display PDFs. Ethan
