In order for me to add support for new programs, I need to know how it shows up in the process list(Think of it as task manager listing).

How to:

download the process_dump executable
Collect logs
2.1. Open cmd/console in the same folder as the downloaded file. You can do that by clicking on the path in explorer, typing in cmd and pressing enter.
2.2. run Process_list_dump.exe > log.txt 2>&1 with the following scenarios, rename the log.txt file in the command to a senseful alternation. To properly implement it, I will need the following logs:
a). all programs closed : control.txt
b). program open - default project, unmodified : default_unmodified.txt
c). program open - default project, modified : default_modified.txt
d). program open - any saved project, unmodified : saved_unmodified.txt
e). program open - any saved project, modified : saved_modified.txt
2.3. After letting it run for a second or two, do ctrl+c to close it, and redo for all the scenarios
Create an issue on github, title it for example like program request: {NAME}, eg: program request: Darktable
attach all the created logs and submit

There's a possibility that I will only be able to provide partial support, as this method relies on the program displaying the project name in the window title. If that isn't the case, partial support *1 will be only possible (reference to README.md)

I might need more info depending on circumstances, but this should be a great starting point. Thanks for taking the time :)

Cheers, dj
