add flag to load images from a .txt file instead of a directory #16

It'd be useful if, like feh, it was possible to say "load images from this playlist file", being a plain text file with one file path per line, rather than only being able to point at a directory/folder and have it play the entire contents of that folder.

Actually, that was in my TODO list. However, I kind of abandoned because I thought there wasn't a lot of use cases for that. Since you mentioned it, I will put that back in to my TODO list. Thank you.

awesome, thanks! I'm using irfanview atm but the lack of "feed it a txt file" is super annoying (I have about 30 .txt files for use with feh that all pull different sets of images from a single master dir with ~15k images, I don't want to only be able to play that entire dir =D)
