inotify-tools?

neoberg · 10-04-2018, 04:14 PM

Hello,
I want to use inotify-tools (https://github.com/rvoicilas/inotify-tools) for a script I need on my Kobo but couldn't cross compile it (on linux or macos). I'm not a C or CPP developer so my knowledge on build systems for these are quite limited. Can someone help me with this?

Did you read INSTALL?
Good luck.

I ship part of it in my bag o' stuff

.

Since it has zero dependencies, if you just need a standalone binary, here's inotifywait.

EDIT: If you need inotifywatch, I probably have that lying around somewhere, too.
