Allow Mutate to quit after window is hidden

[herrlax]

Mutate process not killed when done using Mutate on Ubuntu 15.04. When relaunching Mutate it wont start and "Mutate is already running." is prompted.

Same issue on Fedora.

Fedora 22, updated. Mutate built from the source.

Worth mentioning that this is not the same issue as #53 because if you run mutate from a terminal, you can see that even after running a programming or closing Mutate (pressing ESC) it still holds on to the terminal and the process doesn't exit.

Pressing ESC will hide Mutate and it will continue running in the background. Mutate will show itself again once you press whatever key combination you've configured in preferences (default is Ctrl+D). To quit Mutate, type quit and select 'Quit Mutate'.

There seems to be a bug where sometimes Mutate is unable to detect the key combination and therefore unable to show itself again, but I'll create a separate issue for that.

Note that Mutate will exit cleanly if selecting the Quit Mutate option or typing 'kill ' in terminal. However, if it is force quit, i.e 'kill -9 ', you will see 'Mutate is already running' the next time because the kernel didn't give it enough time to quit cleanly, it just killed it.

Hemmm. Is it possible to have a "no daemon" mode for Mutant? I don't like running process and would like to start mutant on demand using my window manager (i3).

[codeThatThinks]

Hmm, not possible at the moment, but lets make it a feature.

How would then use Mutate (exit after luanch) without killing it?
