watchdog.c - A simple directory watching tool
this does something like "omake -P", if you make change
on directory (or its descent files), the watchdog executes
the command specified in the argv.
only works in MacOS (and maybe in *BSD?).
file system event watcher - with kevent. but badly works
because directory's discriptor event can't watch grand-
children's (and their descents') events. the dog watches
all directories within the directory.
