What is adhocify?
=================
adhocify uses inotify to watch for file system events. Once an event 
occurs it can execute a script. The path of the file and the event 
will be passed to that script. 

Requirements
============
adhocify only runs on Linux. You need a kernel and libc with inotify 
support - pretty much all satisfy this condition.

Options
=======
See adhocify --help.

Examples:
=========
adhocify -w /tmp/ /home/user/myscript.sh
	 Watches for IN_CLOSE_WRITE events in /tmp/ and 
	 launches script /home/user/myscript.sh

adhocify -w /tmp/ /home/user/myscript.sh {}
	Same as above, but also passes the file 
	an event occured on to that script.(argv[1]).


adhocify -w /tmp/ /bin/echo the file {} was written to
	Running	echo "Test" > /tmp/test	will print in the shell 
	adhocify was launched in: "the file /tmp/test was written to"

adhocify -w /tmp/ -w /var/run /home/user/myscript.sh
	Same as above, but also watches /var/run

adhocify /home/user/myscript.sh
	Watches for IN_CLOSE_WRITE events in the current directory, launches script 
	/home/user/myscript.

adhocify -m IN_OPEN -w /tmp /home/user/myscript.sh
	Watches for IN_OPEN events in /tmp/, launches script /home/user/myscript.sh

adhocify -w /tmp -i *.txt /home/user/myscript.sh
	Watches for IN_CLOSE_WRITE events in /tmp/ but will not pass *.txt files to the script
