Feature: Ability to define timeout

[jaffacake]

We use the Whisper to display a notification to the user upon an event. It works great, however, we would like the whisper to display longer so that the user has more time to read it.

The ability to pass a timeout value when creating the whisper would be great!

@jaffacake, that is already possible.
Murmur and Announcement, to display with Shout and Whistle respectively, they have a property to set its duration.
See:
https://github.com/hyperoslo/Whisper/blob/master/Source/Message.swift#L23
https://github.com/hyperoslo/Whisper/blob/master/Source/Message.swift#L38
Depending the initializer you choose, you can either set after the init (to override the default value) or within the initializer.

For the case of Message, to display with Whisper, you can use the method Silent.
See the demo example:
https://github.com/hyperoslo/Whisper/blob/master/Demo/WhisperDemo/WhisperDemo/TableViewController.swift#L34

I hope this helps with your problem.

Oh sorry, I did have a good look through the README but didn't notice anything, I had assume that there was no mention of it there then it'd not be available.

Thanks for your links, very useful.
