Link settings to apps? #18

It would be extremly useful and time saving if you could have profiles for different apps apply themselves automatically when the app in question is opened/focused/on full screen. I managed to get the shaders to apply on most of my emulators, opened from a frontend, and running fullscreen. But it's kind of a hassle to exit fullscreen to switch shaders.

I see, we could set up a dedicated folder (under My Documents or sth) which would contain multiple profile files that ShaderGlass would monitor and apply when a matching app window is detected; something to add to the list.

As a quicker alternative, you can already pass profile file and go fullscreen from ShaderGlass command line so perhaps you could add that to the shortcuts you use to start your emulators, if the frontend allows it?

It is a clever workaround, although i believe my frontend doesn't allow that. Some other one probably does tho. Hope you can implement this eventually! app is pretty cool nonetheless
