make an html GUI to show the past responses

[Jay H]

this is LifeSlice's strategy (it stores html/css/js stuff in the application settings folder), and i think it's nice because making a gui in the browser is probably the quickest way to get something running. also because rumps has no support for any sort of gui.

problem here, of course, is that the stupid no cross-origin requests thing means i have to run a local web server. not ideal but whatever.

so, wait, does something like python -m SimpleHTTPServer work on most people's computers?

[Noon van der Silk]

yep; it works on anyone who has python (i.e. for me on linux and windows)

there's something stupid with line endings from windows not working on linux computers; though. (you need to run dos2unix on the files yuo are executing

[Jay H]

oh ok, awesome! this solution seems good enough for now then.
