Joey Hess	399d0f1929	use PYTHONUNBUFFERED to force python to use sane stdout buffering ... Works around https://github.com/warner/magic-wormhole/issues/108 See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/107705/disable-output-buffering for the gory details. Why a scripting language would chose a default stdout buffering that differs between terminal and piped output, and tends to introduce this kind of bug, I don't know.	2016-12-17 17:28:08 -04:00
Joey Hess	fe6f36d9f3	magic wormhole module ... This interacts with it using stdio, which is surprisingly hard. sendFile does not currently work, due to https://github.com/warner/magic-wormhole/issues/108 Parsing the output to find the magic code is done as robustly as possible, and should continue to work unless wormhole radically changes the format of its codes. Presumably it will never output something that looks like a wormhole code before the actual wormhole code; that would also break this. It would be better if there was a way to make wormhole not mix the code with other output, as requested in https://github.com/warner/magic-wormhole/issues/104 Only exchange of files/directories is supported. To exchange messages, https://github.com/warner/magic-wormhole/issues/99 would need to be resolved. I don't need message exchange however.	2016-12-17 16:58:05 -04:00
