Turn path config option into array

[LordMZTE]

I propose an alternative configuration value for path. The value should also accept an array of paths, which are treated like files in a directory. For example, I might want to have wpaperd select a background randomly from one of multiple directories like this:

[default]
path = ["/usr/share/backgrounds/", "/home/lordmzte/.local/share/backgrounds/"]

Hello and thank you for the feature request :) This is indeed a good idea, it would complicate the code a bit but I think it's still doable. I'll keep you updated once it gets implemented.

Hello @LordMZTE, I have kept this issue in the backlog, since I was working on transitions. Now I am preparing for release 1.0, and I am back at looking at this issue.

The current implementation would require quite a bit of code to handle paths, so this is still not going to be implemented soon, unfortunately :( PRs are welcome though!

If you want to have multiple paths, you can create a directory and put symlinks to your preferred directories inside, it would have the same effect.
