Turn project into a daemon that runs in the background #14

Open jadboy20 opened 4 years ago

jadboy20 commented 4 years ago

Having the program run as a daemon will make it less intrusive if it runs as a background task. Its parameters can be changed by using a config file and it can check the file every second or so for any updates.

This can be done using the pythonw.exe which will run the python app as a background application. It can then have a client based application that can change the configuration real time using socket programming.

If running from a thread, will require some sort of socket based programming to communicate between the processes. Will need a server which will be the wall paper changer, then a gui that will interact with the server.
