I first tried sLister, but ran into the keyboard focus bug, so then installed and tried TCSumatraPDF. Works nicely now, just had to resolve one issue, which I don't think was mentioned in the documentation:
It was necessary to disable the "Remember Opened Files" setting in SumatraPDF. I did this from the Sumatra GUI; I'm sure it's also available in the settings file, though I have not looked there.
The reason that this is necessary is that otherwise, each time I open a PDF file with the plugin, Sumatra reopens all the prior PDFs too, causing lots and lots of flashing windows (more each time the plugin is used), which then stay open in the background. By the time I figured out what was going on, there were about 30 open Sumatra windows in the background, and the flashing was dizzying.
