Documented in highlight_styles xml_view

#' HTML/XML pretty printer and viewer
#'
#' This uses the \code{vkbeautify} and \code{highlight.js} javascript modules to format and
#' "pretty print" HTML/XML documents, nodes, node sets and plain character
#' HTML/XML in an \code{htmlwidget} pane.
#'
#' @param doc \code{xml2} document/node/nodeset, an \code{HTMLInternalDocument}/
#'        \code{XMLInternalDocument} or atomic character vector of HTML/XML content
#' @param style CSS stylesheet to use (see \code{higlight_styles()})
#' @param scroll should the \code{<div>} holding the HTML/XML content scroll
#'        (\code{TRUE}) or take up the full viewer/browser window (\code{FALSE}).
#'        Default is \code{FALSE} (take up the full viewer/browser window). If
#'        this is set to \code{TRUE}, \code{height} should be set to a value
#'        other than \code{NULL}.
#' @param add_filter show an XPath input box to enable live filtering?
#'        (default: \code{FALSE})
#' @param apply_xpath Add and apply an XPath query string to the view. If
#'        \code{add_filter} is \code{TRUE} then this query string will
#'        appear in the filter box and be applied to the passed in document.
#' @param width widget width (best to keep it at 100\%)
#' @param height widget height (kinda only useful for knitting since this is
#'        meant to be an interactive tool).
#' @note Large HTML or XML content may take some time to render properly. It is suggested
#'       that this function be used on as minimal of a subset of HTML/XML as possible
#'       or used in a browser context vs an IDE viewer context.
