i.m. impressed
well, it's done. gom uses xpcom.
it was a bit painful at times, yes, but not nearly as frustrating as trying to get the python bits working (despite that being three-year-ago-me's fault). it's even now using the standard gecko sdk which should make it easier for others to build, and me to support.
after i had written gom_uri_get_contents(), and everything was working great locally, i wondered: do i now support remote files?
the answer is yes
well, as long as it doesn't require an auth dialog or anything.
i guess next up is xpconnect, which gives me XHR for free?
