	Script to set the OSX desktop background to the top picture from a given
	subreddit.

	NOTE: sets it for the current space (on all monitors), but not other spaces.
	There doesn't seem to be an AppKit API to change it for all spaces.

	TODO: set it in the sqlite db instead:

Updates IMDB dumps without making on-disk uncompressed copies.

	#!/usr/bin/env python

	'''
	Updates an IMDB data dump (http://www.imdb.com/interfaces) fully-automatically,
	without making any uncompressed copies on disk because those are big.

	Note that this runs slower than it could because, well, it's Python. Works with
	pypy, though. I haven't done any profiling or anything to see where the
	slowdowns are.
