About

Some websites that show scientific papers, either use an uninformative page title (e.g., Google Scholar's "View article" pages), or just show a PDF.

This results in uninformative Tab names, making items hard to find and navigate.

This simple extensions handles this situation for specific websites, by inferring the paper's name and updating the Tab's title. 

The extension currently handles:
- PDF papers from arxiv.org.
- PDF papers from ACL anthology.
- The 'View article' page of Google Scholar
