Need to add a test suite, will probably add ava or mocha

The way it works right now is that the script is executed in the main process to be able to use some of the electron API's like globalHotkey etc. However, any errors that are not caught in the main process will crash the application, which is why a major architecture rewrite is necessary. Instead of executing the script in the main process it could be executed in the renderer process with calls to the main process to register a globalHotkey etc, and whenever a global hotkey is pressed there's a call from the main process that the key combination has been pressed to the renderer process. This would hopefully fix the application crashes and not make the main process as vulnerable.

This thread is to be kept open to discuss possible module additions to the user accessible bundle

Added as of now:

• RobotJS (Windows + Mac)
• node-applescript (Mac)
