Soon, no plugins will work other than Flash.  Later, even Flash will not
work.  This is per Mozilla's plans.

While this mess has not yet propagated to SeaMonkey, I have installed
the PDF Viewer extension.  This is inherent in Firefox and supposedly
will soon be inherent in SeaMonkey.

You can get PDF Viewer from
<https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js#browser-extensions> and download it
from the link "Development Version".  The file is named pdf.js.xpi.
Drag-and-drop the file into your browser window to install it.

I am not sure PDF viewer can be installed or even function in
SeaMonkey's MailNews component.  If the PDF files were attachments to an
E-mail message, save them and open them outside of SeaMonkey with
Acrobat Reader.

When the President of the United States makes a statement of
national importance, I want to see his face as he is talking.
At the least, I want to hear his voice.

Donald:  Stop tweeting.  Otherwise, how do we know the message
really comes from you?
