Description:

File and directory monitoring system

Gamin is a file and directory monitoring system which allows applications to detect when a file or a directory has been added, removed or modified by somebody else. . It can be used by desktops like KDE, GNOME or Xfce to have their virtual file systems keep track of changes to files and directories. For example, if a file manager displays a directory to the user, and the user removes one of the files via the command-line, gamin will notify the file manager of this change so that it can update the directory display. . Gamin has been designed as a drop-in replacement for FAM with security and maintainability in mind and can use Linux's advanced inotify service when available.
