This is somewhat off topic, as it has nothing to do with external LED
lights, but in case anyone wants it, I've just wrapped that recipe into
a system-tray icon, (rather than a physical light), so those of us who
run back-ends on our workstations can see when the machine is working on
a recording.

Not really something I felt the need for myself, but I felt like playing
with the system-tray-icon in wxPython.
Have fun,
Mike
