todd,

E 0.16.x makes use of the ~/.enlightenment/...e_session-XXXXXX file for
its configuration info.

There may be a fixed interval that this file is read, however I have not
been able to decipher this.

I wrote a random wallpaper script for E that uses parse operations on this
file directly, the only method I found of getting E to check this file for
new backgrounds is to restart with eesh.
