   added a WebUSB platform device capability descriptor to #GlasgowInterfaceExplorer so now it pops up a prompt like this if you plug it in and Chrome is running

     anyway, i think it should be possible to plug #GlasgowInterfaceExplorer into a completely new computer and start, for example, dumping flash into a file within 30 seconds and with zero Python virtualenv interaction. i have as of this point basically achieved that (tho you need Chrome)
