Using DSCIP
================================================================================
Using DSCIP is extremely simple, there's two ways you can run it.
A. Running it as a cronjob that runs periodically.
B. Running it as a daemon that runs continually.

Funcionally, these two methods work about the same, but depending on your
platform, one may be easier to set up than the other. I personally recommend
setting it up as a cronjob over a daemon. You can do this on most unix systems
by running `crontab -e -u build_user` and adding:
* * * * * /home/build_user/program/dscip

As for how to make it run as a daemon, that depends on the platform you are
running it on, so refer to your OS's documentation for that.

Be sure to change the variables in config.sh to suit your projects needs.

Quirks:
When running it on windows, you should use MSYS2.
