Be carefull using IN_MODIFY :

Lot of UNIX editor, for instance like 'vi', work in a 'xxx~' file, and changes are written in 'xxx' when saving or saving and closing.

If a watcher is done on 'xxx', no IN_MODIFY event occurs while not saved !

Prefere IN_CLOSE_WRITE in such case .

IN_ACCESS = 1
IN_MODIFY = 2
IN_ATTRIB = 4
IN_CLOSE_WRITE = 8
IN_CLOSE_NOWRITE = 16
IN_OPEN = 32
IN_MOVED_FROM = 64
IN_MOVED_TO = 128
IN_CREATE = 256
IN_DELETE = 512
IN_DELETE_SELF = 1024
IN_MOVE_SELF = 2048
IN_UNMOUNT = 8192
IN_Q_OVERFLOW = 16384
IN_IGNORED = 32768
IN_CLOSE = 24
IN_MOVE = 192
IN_ALL_EVENTS = 4095
IN_ONLYDIR = 16777216
IN_DONT_FOLLOW = 33554432
IN_MASK_ADD = 536870912
IN_ISDIR = 1073741824
IN_ONESHOT = 2147483648
