Simple node.js script that prints wmii events as they occur.

event_reader.js

var spawn = require('child_process').spawn;
var stdin = process.openStdin();

var reader = spawn('wmiir', ['read', '/event']);
reader.stdout.on('data', function(data) {
    console.log("Got event: " + data);
});

console.log("Press ENTER to exit.");

stdin.on('data', function(data) {
    reader.kill();
    process.exit();
});
