-## WatchDog Methods
-
-```python
-class _WatchDog()
-```
-
-Set a watchdog, in a separate Thread, to be notified when some window states change
-
-Notice that changes will be notified according to the window status at the very moment of instantiating this class
-
-IMPORTANT: This can be extremely slow in macOS Apple Script version
-
- Available methods:
-:meth start: Initialize and start watchdog and selected callbacks
-:meth updateCallbacks: Change the states this watchdog is hooked to
-:meth updateInterval: Change the interval to check changes
-:meth kill: Stop the entire watchdog and all its hooks
-:meth isAlive: Check if watchdog is running
-

-#### start
-
-```python
-def start(isAliveCB: Callable[[bool], None] | None = None,
- isActiveCB: Callable[[bool], None] | None = None,
- isVisibleCB: Callable[[bool], None] | None = None,
- isMinimizedCB: Callable[[bool], None] | None = None,
- isMaximizedCB: Callable[[bool], None] | None = None,
- resizedCB: Callable[[Tuple[int, int]], None] | None = None,
- movedCB: Callable[[Tuple[int, int]], None] | None = None,
- changedTitleCB: Callable[[str], None] | None = None,
- changedDisplayCB: Callable[[List[str]], None] | None = None,
- interval: float = 0.3)
-```
-
-Initialize and start watchdog and hooks (callbacks to be invoked when desired window states change)
-
-Notice that changes will be notified according to the window status at the very moment of execute start()
-
-The watchdog is asynchronous, so notifications will not be immediate (adjust interval value to your needs)
-
-The callbacks definition MUST MATCH their return value (boolean, string or (int, int))
-
-IMPORTANT: This can be extremely slow in macOS Apple Script version
-
-**Arguments**:
-
-- `isAliveCB`: callback to call if window is not alive. Set to None to not watch this
-Returns the new alive status value (False)
-- `isActiveCB`: callback to invoke if window changes its active status. Set to None to not watch this
-Returns the new active status value (True/False)
-- `isVisibleCB`: callback to invoke if window changes its visible status. Set to None to not watch this
-Returns the new visible status value (True/False)
-- `isMinimizedCB`: callback to invoke if window changes its minimized status. Set to None to not watch this
-Returns the new minimized status value (True/False)
-- `isMaximizedCB`: callback to invoke if window changes its maximized status. Set to None to not watch this
-Returns the new maximized status value (True/False)
-- `resizedCB`: callback to invoke if window changes its size. Set to None to not watch this
-Returns the new size (width, height)
-- `movedCB`: callback to invoke if window changes its position. Set to None to not watch this
-Returns the new position (x, y)
-- `changedTitleCB`: callback to invoke if window changes its title. Set to None to not watch this
-Returns the new title (as string)
-- `changedDisplayCB`: callback to invoke if window changes display. Set to None to not watch this
-Returns the new display name (as string)
-- `interval`: set the interval to watch window changes. Default is 0.3 seconds

-Change the states this watchdog is hooked to
-
-The callbacks definition MUST MATCH their return value (boolean, string or (int, int))
-
-IMPORTANT: When updating callbacks, remember to set ALL desired callbacks or they will be deactivated
-
-IMPORTANT: Remember to set ALL desired callbacks every time, or they will be defaulted to None (and unhooked)
-
