Comment (by dkrenn):

 Replying to [comment:13 vbraun]:
 > `latex(...).compile()` does not show a picture, it generates a PDF
 document. The document wrapper object pretty-prints graphically. You can
 also assign it to a variable, save as a pdf file, etc. In the latter case
 no picture is shown. Just like graphics objects (the return values of
 `plot`, for example)

 making them aliases, at least).

 So `view(A)` does (or should do) the same as `show(latex(A).compile())`.
 Or am I wrong? If yes, can we just replace the code of `view` by this
 command?
