## Application launcher
## Supported Things

Once, the application started, the `running` state will change to `true`, if the application
is finished, the `running` state will change to `false`.
### Example
**Example**
An example command could be [espeak](http://linux.die.net/man/1/espeak). (`apt-get install espeak`)
espeak -v en "Chuck Norris is using nymea"
