Carlos,
I guess you missed the earlier posts. I'd like to write an application
that
allows the user to define sets of wallpapers that will be applied to the
Desktop background. Like a different wallpaper every N mins/hrs and/or
changing on startup or shutdown. Something like WallMaster(TM) for
Windows.
Each wallpaper in a set would be weighted or timed in such a way that
favourite ones would appear more often or for a longer period than
others.
You're right; I missed that description of the more elaborate
functionality you had in mind. Sounds cool. It seems as if the
NSUserDefaults method -setPersistentDomain:forName: should do
approximately what you want, except for the problem of how the Finder
will react to having its preferences snatched out from under it.
