Subject: inotifywait man page--possible error
Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2015 19:54:48 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5820328.QymD6BquXU@midnight> (raw)
I noticed a problem with example no. 2 at toward the bottom of the page. I
tried and tried to get this to work. It would not. Then I replaced the word
"while" with the word "until". Then it works. Sorry to trouble you. I'm
just a beginner at scripting, and this may not be an error at all, and might
somehow be my fault. Forgive me if I am wrong. I am only relating what
happened on *my* system I'm using Fedora 18. My only goal in writing you to
possibly save some other beginner a headache if it *is* a mistake.
Tom
