* Defined inner functions in the worker function to handle the actual queries. This allows for *them* to simply return data or raise exceptions to be caught by the main worker function. *IT* then handles returning any error appropriately via the queue to AppWindow. * Due to the coupling between AppWindow and these queries there are several extra parameters passed into the queue worker and then back out. This is largely due to having to split AppWindow.getandsend() into two functions: capi_request_data() and capi_handle_response(). This might get changed to use a class to encapsulate those values, rather than the bare tuple currently being used. * No full flake8 & mypy pass done yet. * Some companion.py globals renamed so their use is more obvious.

Elite: Dangerous Market Connector (EDMC)
This application is only of use to PC players of the game Elite Dangerous (and its expansions). It won't work with PS4 or Xbox accounts.
It utilises the Journal files written by the game on the user's computer, together with data from the API Frontier Developments supplies in order to feed this data to various third party sites that the user may find useful.
See the Wiki documentation for more details.
