In KDE, you can simply type the name of the program (in this case, evince) 
right into the bar at the top, and it'll work.  I don't really understand why 
GNOME doesn't have something similar for the command-line people who are used 
to thinking in low-level commands (I almost always use the command-line 
command name instead of the menu name if I'm searching for something).
