wow - is that an NPAPI plugin (for webkit), but in... python??
ok - the reason i'm interested in this is because when i first started
on webkit, i thought "python bindings to a DOM model would make a
stonking desktop widget API". so i looked around. python-xpcom was a
pile of pants. i spoke to apple developers, they said, "oh, yes, you
can use the objective-c bindings and then use python bindings to
those, that way you get access to the DOM". i said, "does that work
on gnu/linux platforms?" and they didn't really answer.
so, anyway, i went ahead and added glib/gobject bindings to webkit,
and then put python bindings on top of those, and then got into a
bun-fight with apple employees over their fascist dictatorship style
of management of webkit.
so - i'm looking for an alternative, and an answer to the original
question: can you get pyobjc to work (somehow) on free software
platforms?
