plz.el VS emacs-dumb-japanese

plz can make the network code easier to write: https://github.com/alphapapa/plz.el

I've released version 0.2 of plz.el, my HTTP library for Emacs Lisp that uses curl as a backend. This version includes a new feature, a simple request queue system. It works like this:

url-retrieve is definitely a bit awkward. I started working on plz, which I use in Ement.el. Lars also has a branch with a macro that wraps url-retrieve with a nicer API; he hasn't merged it yet.

Request is a good library in many ways, but you may also find my new plz.el HTTP library interesting. It's at an early stage of development and could use more testing.

fyi, the first link in the README appears to be broken: https://github.com/alphapapa/plz.el/blob/master/httpbin.org

I have been using plz.el to write Japanese. For dealing with a simple GET endpoint, it's more concise than url-http.

I am developing a Japanese input method that tracks user inputs as text properties. In theory, it is possible to extract romaji/hiragana from kanji transliterated with it, but the project has less priority for me.
