Single line command to show the maintainer the output.

git clone https://github.com/MichaelDimmitt/NinjaMode.git; cd NinjaMode; git checkout add_launch_agent; ./mac_plist_launch_agent/app/install_driver.sh

Above command was not included in the commit because not needed once merged.

Story time!
I found this repository searching for how to build a menu bar for a mac computer. I already had a launch agent for my project. As I was looking at your menu bar it occurred to me that you probably have to run the program every time your computer restarts.

Your the first external person I have introduced my launch agent code. Take a look at the readme from this commit. Happy to remove any portions that you feel take away from your credit.

Basically the repo is downloaded into your project ... it is called "mac_plist_launch_agent". If you have any feedback such as you would like it to exist in a "bin" folder, or "Homebrew brew" or "Ruby gem", let me know. Or let me know if it is appropriate to yourself in its current form. Still trying to figure out the best way provide it for other peoples projects.

creating a "Homebrew brew" or "Ruby gem" would take some time and no guarantee that it would happen.

This was great to have an example of a working menu bar application. @NSRover, Thanks for your open source contributions. Thanks for taking the time to read this message.

Feel free to post questions on the code; free to suggest changes; Let me know if you run into issues I can provide support. Runs on my machine. But I can get it working on yours and improve the code if a change is needed.

cheers, Michael Dimmitt

This commit contains the only changes that were necessary to set the
launch agent up for your particular project aside from the default
launch agent brought into the project in the previous commit.
