I just filed a request about pw mentioning this package, so I might as
well document it here. I understand we don't want to package the
entire universe just because it exists, but I've had a few colleagues
just "oooouh" and "aaaaah" seeing this one, so I am betting someone
will be interested enough in this package to want it in Debian.

Obviously, a similar package to this is the watch command... I also
just filed an ITP for pw ("pipe watcher", #1017804) that is somewhat
similar, but IMHO more powerful.
