What is adhocify?
=================
adhocify is a very simple and useful tool.
adhocify uses inotify to watch for file system events. Those events are
specified by the user. Once an event occurs, it launches a script supplied
by the user, passing the path of the file the event occured on as an argument.
How do I use adhocify?
======================
Launch adhocify without any arguments and you will get the options listed.
Examples:
./adhocify -w /tmp/ /home/core/myscript.sh
------------------------------------------
Watches for IN_CLOSE_WRITE events in /tmp/, launches script /home/core/myscript.sh
./adhocify -w /tmp/ -w /var/run /home/core/myscript.sh
------------------------------------------------------
Same as above, but also watches /var/run
./adhocify /home/core/myscript.sh
---------------------------------
Watches for IN_CLOSE_WRITE events in the current directory, launches script
/home/core/myscript.
./adhocify -m IN_OPEN -w /tmp /home/core/myscript.sh
----------------------------------------------------
Watches for IN_OPEN events in /tmp/, launches script /home/core/myscript.sh
./adhocify -w /tmp -i *.txt /home/core/myscript.sh
--------------------------------------------------
... ignores *.txt files ....
