Thanks Mark! Arthur's mockup looks great. Combining his work with the ability to read the log in real-time would be awesome. I know these are distinct tickets, but if both functionality could land in TorButton at approximately the same time (very soon :)), it will help a lot. Maybe the "easy" way to do this will be to work on a simple log reader, that is integrated into TorButton, and then if another, fancier thing materializes, then all the better. (yes, I will start looking at this again because "if I don't, how can I expect others will?"). If anyone feels like hacking on this, then you're probably a better candidate than me :) _______________________________________________ tor-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-dev
