What happens when doGrab() is called from the REPL, after being 'fed' 
data you expect is valid? (per a unit-test)

What code-level debugging has been exercised?

Have you tried running the code in a debugger, in order to step into the 
(assumed) doGrab error?


Sadly, this code is so old as to have grown whiskers.
- are all the called-modules, eg webkit and the OpSys; still offering 
the appropriate interfaces, and continuing to behave in the expected 
fashion?
(anything relevant in those Release Notes?)
- in theory, Python 2 will still run. However, a reasonable proportion 
of today's Python-coders are unlikely to have ever used it.
(Sunsetting Python 2 https://www.python.org/doc/sunset-python-2/)
- were this code to be written using today's libraries, it is unlikely 
to look anything like this
(which may also be contributing to the dearth of replies)
