[m-users.] GitHub release: mercury-rinse-repeat. A simplistic file watcher -- action runner

[Sean Charles (emacstheviking)]

Hi,

In case anybody might be looking for some simple code that shows how to call "C" code and also have a utility that watches files for their modification timestamp(s) to change, then run a command and rinse-repeat forever.

It builds on a sample program I released last week, if you find it useful my name was Sean, if not, my name was Donald.

I wrote it to drive my Literate Programming tangle/weave tool which I am almost ready to publish as well, it just needs some very minor tweaks before it passes muster. It's fashioned after `noweb`, in fact the syntax for blocks is the same, I took inspiration from it as I have used it in the past to produce working sellable Drupal modules back in the bad old days.

The program is VERY simple and VERY naive but that's all I needed and it works for me.

Thanks for all the comments along the way,

Sean.
