Seems useful, and builds OOTB in Cygwin. It's limited in Windows in that it will only (recursively) watch directories, not files, and unfortunately the app doesn't warn you about that if you give it a file path instead of a directory path - it just does nothing. Still interesting. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
