kfilewatcher
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
This program watches for file changes and allows you to react on them.
Example:
kfilewatcher /tmp/test 2>&1 | while read a; do echo "File has changed - doing something"; done
This command does something every time kfilewatcher detects a change. At the moment, the only action is to output "File has changed - doing something", but you can write anything there, e.g.
- backup stuff as soon as it changes
- publish files on your homepage everytime they change
- keep directories in sync
