Hello, HTTPSEverywhere-people

i want to announce to you the existence of libhttpseverywhere [0]
a Vala-(-> C-)library that allows you to use HTTPSEverywhere's
awesomeness in desktop applications.

The features that are currently supported work pretty well now.
Currently covered is:

  * Checking whether a specific host has a ruleset
  * Rewriting an input URL to the corresponding https-url according to
the rulesets.

These are the features is needed by now. If you need more features,
contributions are very welcome (e.g.) methods for securecookies e.t.c

The library supports GObject-Introspection, so it's very easy to bind
against from various languages

Python example:

from gi.repository import HTTPSEverywhere

HTTPSEverywhere.init()
print HTTPSEverywhere.has_https("eff.org")
# prints True
print HTTPSEverywhere.rewrite("http://eff.org")
# prints https://eff.org

Feedback and Stars are appreciated, i hope this comes in handy to some
of you for one or another project.

Yours, grindhold
