Add a command line option for -noBrowser

[ryanfelder]

I would like to run TorrentTunes as a service when I log in.

I can run the command line client automatically, but it also opens a browser window (undesired), and if I close that browser window, the torrent tunes client stops (also undesired)

I'd like to be able to run it without it opening a browser window automatically, so that I can visit it as I please. I have set it up the link as a web application so it lives in my dock on linux.

My apologies if this is already possible, I have not found any help reading the webpage or closed tickets.

Here's how to run the client as a command line.

I have the browser window thing default right now, but I can add a command line flag to not open up a browser window if you'd like.

If you want to run it on startup, it depends on the distro, but you'd just add that java -jar command to your startup file.

Yes please, a flag for no browser window at startup, and also maybe make it selectable if the torrent tunes client closes when I close the browser window.

These two would provide a good enough 'daemonize' mode.

Not sure why but the behaviour that causes the client to stop when I close the browser happens on chromium, but not on another browser, midori.

I haven't tested midori, just chrome, firefox, and safari. Midori must not be adhering to some standards that all the other browsers are.

I'll add this as a feature request, and get this done soon.

Thank you!

If you use the normal shortcut version, or the torrenttunes-launcher.jar, it should update automatically.
