StarfishX - A desktop pattern generator
Authored by: bhippel on Apr 17, '03 03:38:03AM

Dude, it's not just you! I love this app. It's my new fav app too.
It generates awesome patterns, and runs in the background. I
have it generating a new pattern every hour, and when it does
generate the pattern, it winds up minimizing (rather than hiding)
the application after the pattern is generated. Well, that results
in me having to bring StarFishX up, and hide it again.

I'm running 10.2.5, and was wondering if anyone else was
experiencing this minor glitch.

Hiding/Minimizing
Authored by: AMacAddict on Apr 17, '03 07:12:15AM

I hide Starfish on launch, and leave the Minimize while
generating unchecked. Starfish does all of its processing in the
background, and never comes forward on its own.

Hiding/Minimizing

... and if you "Show Package Contents" -> Contents -> Edit
"Info.plist" -> Root
and add the "LSUI Element; 1" key/value pair, then it doesn't
even show up on your dock, and it's effectively a "background
service".
