I'm not sure if I understood this... Purpose of the executable dataengine is 
that it runs a script/command and when script has finished returns data it 
outputted to the applet (similar to program sensor in SuperKaramba). e.g. 
applet runs some script once every hour and when script is finished shows it 
output. Kind of poor mans solution to scripted dataengine but this way you can 
make bash script dataengines :-)
