Hey there!
I need help to answer a couple of questions about scratchattach by TimMcCool.
1. Is it an extension?
I thought of this because of the command to run scratchattach “pip install -U scratchattach”.
2. Can it access API from google?
3. Can it be modified to do so?
Thanks for your time and help.

What do you mean “API from Google”? Do you mean using Google Chrome as a web browser (which it doesn't need to do) or accessing an API that Google has made?

It can probably be modified to do so, although you're going to have to find a copy of the source code first.

Kind of accessing API from the google search pages. I will try looking for source code on the scratchattach github page.
Thanks for your help!

Edit:
I found assets, but it was encoded and came out as gibberish. Here's a line:

That's how they normally look like.

Are they encoded?

PNGs, JPGs, and other kinds of bitmap images are stored as binary data, not text. They don't have a particular encoding

I see.

1. pretty sure its a python library
2. the library itself cannot, but you could just access other APIs via other libraries (or you might not even need another library, not sure)
3. Yea probably

Thanks! Great idea.
