Ubuntu :: Bash - Open Mlocate Search Results?

Upon a while of searching, I think I failed to find the correct terms and I'm posting here. I often use mlocate to search for files. For example, if I say

Code:

$ mlocate temp_2.pdf

I'll get two results:

Code:

/home/kmc/Documents/latex/temp_2.pdf
/home/kmc/Documents/latex/test/temp_2.pdf

Now if I want to open one of them, I'll have to either open Acroread and browse to their locations. Or select and copy, and call acroread in terminal like

Code:

$ acroread /home/kmc/Documents/latex/temp_2.pdf

This is tedious to me. I'm thinking of a way of quickly open its search results, I've tried pipes like this but it doesn't work:

Code:

$ mlocate temp_2.pdf | acroread

maybe it doesn't work this way. So what does the trick? What's the name of this trick? I've googled for

Quote:

Linux bash catch output, pipe output, open mlocate results And is it possible to handle multiple lines of output, e.g., can I choose which line of output get forwarded to relative programs?
