  Description     : A set of command-line programs providing a simple interface to inotify

inotify-tools is a set of command-line programs for Linux providing a
simple interface to inotify. These programs can be used to monitor and
act upon filesystem events. inotify-tools consists of two utilities:

- inotifywait simply blocks for inotify events, making it appropriate
  for use in shell scripts.

- inotifywatch collects filesystem usage statistics and outputs counts
  of each inotify event.
