Thank you Oliver,
but this filechanged utility looses all benefits of the FAM system.
What I need is a tool much like procmail uses to lock files;
- my shell script would call, for example "/usr/bin/fam-wait filename " , a
call
that would block until the file has been changed.
Ok, I'll try to write cut and paste some C code to get this behaviour ...
(I wish I was a C programmer)
