Update other spaces backgrounds #2

Currently when I run reddit-background only the background of my current desktop/space is updated. I would love to be able to have all my spaces' backgrounds updated to the photo.

I would love to be able to add support for this, but haven't found a way yet.

Manipulating a physical desktop (e.g. monitor) is pretty easy in AppleScript, but I haven't found an easy way yet of querying and manipulating the virtual desktops (Spaces) yet.

I've seen a few pretty nasty hacks that might do it, but haven't tried them out yet.

If you can point me to some AppleScript that lets me query how many spaces we have, and then sets a background for a particular space, I would be happy to add this feature!

I looked extensively into the problem as well. I haven't been able to find an AppleScript that will properly update them. Too bad :/

I've modified this project to integrate into OSX's folder-based background rotation https://github.com/awendland/reddit-wallpaper
