Developer Information
Roadmap ahead
add as a tab in firebug?? (any open-source developer up for this, eh?? email me! mimecuvalo@gmail.com)x11 forwarding, maybe (patches welcome!)
Make it faster
- native typed arrays don't work with writeByteArray and readByteArray. laaaamesauce. some way to cast?
- however, even if typed arrays did work, manipulating arrays is many times slower than manipulating strings (see benchmark)
- big part is converting from string<->array. scriptableunicodeconverter seems nice but can't convert extended ascii?
- WTF? why is using NSS + ctypes slower than the js blowfish implementation?
- sample2.html
- WeaveCrypto.js?raw=1
- test_crypto_crypt.js
(firefox 4+ only, save this page to local disk to test)
