> However, this is not trivial. I am not an expert in the extensions API,
but I could not find a direct API for looking at firefox's stdin. The
closest I could think of is using js-ctypes to call C functions directly
to look at it, but the documentation for that is non-existent. I did find
a relatively good and complete example of how to use it to do useful
things here: https://github.com/bit/subprocess/blob/master/subprocess.jsm
but it would still take a fair bit of work to implement the behaviour we
want. But perhaps I can find someone who knows a lot about js-ctypes to
help me with this.
The js-ctypes unit test code might be helpful if you need examples of how
to declare C types and functions (and use them):
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-
esr31/source/toolkit/components/ctypes/tests/unit/test_jsctypes.js
Note that at one point Mike Perry removed js-ctypes support from Tor
Browser (more secure not to have it), but we ended up re-enabling it
because some internal Mozilla code relies on it.
