I made a python piece of software that downloads interestingness photos
from flickr in a directory.Thanks to the fxd + freevoscreensaver I
managed to have flickr screensaver.

Now I would like to integrate it in freevo:
a) either I launch my script from a cron job to refresh the photo
directory only (freevo separated)
b) or integration in freevo python code (I need some help/tips)
This means : launch periodically flickr directory update python script
(Is there already something looking like this ?)
May be add a mutex lock to photo dir access since this becomes a shared
resource with freevoscreensaver?



I need your advice!

Best Regards
S.Ancelot
