Re: libseed-list trying to read a gio stream

[Tim Horton <hortont424 gmail com>]

There are numerous examples in the seed-examples git repo that do the following:

file = Gio.file_new_for_path(filename);
content = file.read().get_contents();

I think get_contents() is a seed extension, but I don't remember. There's also Gio.simple_read (another seed extension):

http://git.gnome.org/cgit/seed/tree/extensions/Gio.js

Also, out arguments work like so:

http://git.gnome.org/cgit/seed/tree/tests/javascript/out-test.js

(there's a lot of good stuff/demonstrations of stuff that hasn't been documented yet in the tests tree)
