Minimise to menu/status bar #77

Open emanuelbalea opened 4 years ago

emanuelbalea commented 4 years ago

First this works like a charm on the 3950X, so thank you for spending the time to do this. While a developer, I'm a newbie to macos dev so have no idea where to start, so thought to ask first.

My questions:

  1. Is it possible to add a feature to minimise this the top menu bar or make the app start with no windows?

  2. Or is the app even required for this feature to function?

At the moment I have the app set to launch at startup but unsure if its actually needed for the feature to function.

Hi @emanuelbalea, you certainly don't need to keep the user space application running to use kernel features. However you might want a menu bar application for displaying readings. I have plan to make one but never had time yet. It shouldn't be too hard.
