To keep compatibility with the latest version of Firefox, this addon must be ported over to WebExtensions.

It's unfortunate that WebExtensions doesn't support ctypes. I'm mostly done with the port and it looks like I'll have to include a compiled binary for each platform to continue supporting the media keys. Thanks for reminding me of in the imminent doom.

@carlin-q-scott Do you have an estimated release date for the WebExtension update?

@carlin-q-scott Just glad to see that this project is still alive. Thanks for the response. Can't wait to get back to using the plugin.
