Myself, I find inotify-tools more useful: I use inotifywait in a loop,
waiting for a browser to close files in its cache. I then examine
their filetype and copy the ones I want, giving them sensible
(timestamp) names. Very useful for capturing (typically, live) video.
But I can see the usefulness of iwatch if you're maintaining a
website or a server farm, as in their examples. (My random collection
of PCs only constitutes a smallholding.)
Cheers,
David.
