Is there any documented information on the Mint widget API out there? Im currently using the same method as the OS X Widget and Vista Gadget to access information for the Firefox extension FireMint, but there doesnt seem to be much outputted from the API.

Is there away to access more information? Maybe more information from different peppers?

Thanks

No. The API was designed for use with the OS X widget and doesn’t provide output from other Pepper. You could create an independent Pepper and use the onCustom method to generate output for your extension.

Or ask the desired Pepper developers to integrate something like that into their Peppers.

Thanks guys, next question would be, is it possible to collect data from other peppers into one pepper?

Then i might be able to build a special FireMint pepper to provide the firefox extension with more data etc..

Thanks again!
