Before making changes to the update-channels-from-git.sh file, I wanted to have everything stored in such a way that it made logical sense where it went.

Anything that goes to the root folder is in "main-dir", channel specific files are in "channel-dir", and the files for both sections are in "both-dir".  These directories will eventually be referenced in the new version of "update-channels-from-git.sh".

# file: generate_daily_sched.sh
#----
# This file is meant to be setup with a crontab task to generate daily schedule (even if app is already running).
#
# **This file is also used to startstop a running channel, trigger an update and restart the channel**
#
# If planning on using the ./startstop.sh script to save power, etc. this script needs to be used to
# update the daily schedule if the app is not running.
#----
#----
# To Use:
# % crontab -e
# 0 0 * * * cd /home/pi/pseudo-channel/ && /home/pi/pseudo-channel/env/bin/python /home/pi/pseudo-channel/PseudoChannel.py -g >> /home/pi/pseudo-channel/pseudo-channel.log 2>&1
#
# INFO: The above runs every midnight, triggering the virtualenv python version to trigger PsuedoChannel.py -g & send all output to the log.
# Update the paths as you see fit using your user / directories. Mine is using the defualt pi /home dir and virtualenv dirs.
