Testing

To test this system, you will need a testable "/.local/share/monocle" and "/.monocle" directory. Please copy the ones provided in the repository to these specified locations. It will populate these things by itself at some point soon, but not yet.

You can also mark Main.py as executable, and it will run as a local MIME command. (cd to project dir and type ./Main.py)
