// accepts or denies authorization, the browser receives the response and redirects to localhost:<port>,
// where Chilkat is waiting on a background thread to receive the redirect, process it, and then send the HTTP request
// to exchange the code for a token.  This happens internally while your code below is waiting for the authorization..)
