gamin - 0.1.10-6 main

Gamin is a file and directory monitoring system which allows
applications to detect when a file or a directory has been added,
removed or modified by somebody else.
.
It can be used by desktops like KDE, GNOME or Xfce to have their
virtual file systems keep track of changes to files and directories.
For example, if a file manager displays a directory to the user, and
the user removes one of the files via the command-line, gamin will
notify the file manager of this change so that it can update the
directory display.
.
Gamin has been designed as a drop-in replacement for FAM with security
and maintainability in mind and can use Linux's advanced inotify
service when available.
