The library extends the awesome's functionality by enabling it to
display notifications sent to it over DBUS, or directly from the Lua
inside awesome. Thats how you are meant to use it.

Then you could use DBUS to send the notifications. That would have the
advantage of not being dependent on awesome, every notification utility
could display your notifications.

The code in the file gets executed at the moment you call the
dofile("yourscript.lua"). So if you put it in a keybinding handler
function, it should be called every time you press the keybinding.
