  • Add a convenience function rsmf.show to show PDFs in IPython

Currently on hold because there are only two vays to display a PDF in the browser:
a) Use an iframe and then the browser will use the PDF viewer plugin to render it. This does work with Edge but Google Chrome doesn't render the PDF because the iframe gets sandboxed and no PDF viewer plugin can be loaded

b) Render the PDF to an image and display that. This would require additional dependencies (pypdf, wand, ...) that I don't want to add to this library
