299 Watching a directory is not recursive. CALLBACK gets called in case of an
300 event. It gets passed a single argument EVENT which contains an event structure
301 of the format
303 (WATCH-DESCRIPTOR ASPECTS NAME COOKIE)
305 WATCH-DESCRIPTOR is the same object that was returned by this function. It can
306 be tested for equality using `equal'. ASPECTS describes the event. It is a
307 list of ASPECT symbols described above and can also contain one of the following
308 symbols
310 ignored
311 isdir
312 q-overflow
313 unmount
315 If a directory is watched then NAME is the name of file that caused the event.
317 COOKIE is an object that can be compared using `equal' to identify two matching
318 renames (moved-from and moved-to).
320 See inotify(7) and inotify_add_watch(2) for further information. The inotify fd
321 is managed internally and there is no corresponding inotify_init. Use
322 `inotify-rm-watch' to remove a watch.
