Added "Scan at Launch" Preference #33
Conversation

Ah interesting use case! One idea/question ...would it not be easier to persist KnockKnock, say as a launch agent and have it run via its command line interface? Pros: No UI (which in this case I think would be a good thing), output can be captured from stdout and send to you/elsewhere for analysis/post-processing, etc etc. For more info see: |

No, because that would increase my responsibilities beyond my comfort level. I do not wish to assume the role of system administrator for all of my friends’ Macs. Instead, I simply want to provide them with the necessary tools to ensure the safe usage of their Macs. |

Is there any possibility that this PR will be merged in the future? At the time of its release, this PR had no conflicts, which would have made it easy to merge and improve user friendliness for less tech-savvy individuals. I fail to comprehend why this PR hasn’t been merged yet, and it discourages me from contributing further. Furthermore running via CLI is not an option because this PR targets less tech savvy users. |

Motivation: I'm managing Macs in my circle of friends. I install KnockKnock on every Mac and add it to the list of Login Items. While it is obvious for power users to click the "Start Scan" button, it isn't for regular users. The "Scan at Launch" pref fixes this problem and makes sure regular users Macs will get scanned at least once on every reboot.
