References and Directions #2

I have done a first pass at translating this into Python without issue other that settling on the style of the thing.

I would like to see it accessible from C++ and other languages as it is super useful, that sounds like what @sarnold might be doing with autotools (more conditional compilation?)

I would also like to find out what makes this work. It sure looks like the config file we write to is actually monitored by some daemon/agent process but which one? Are there references to that? I'd be happy review and to add that into documentation as this seems to be super useful.

I used my Python translation already in a project with a PIR motion sensor.

How do I get the program open and use it? they didn't put how to access the program from the command line or anything, I just installed it and have no idea how to run it.
