I could do it, although it seems a little work is stil required to port
watch to Windows:
C:\watch-1.1>\python23\Scripts\watch.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\python23\Scripts\watch.py", line 667, in ?
main(sys.argv[1:])
File "C:\python23\Scripts\watch.py", line 611, in main
server=server, port=port)
File "C:\python23\Scripts\watch.py", line 235, in __init__
self.output = open("/dev/null", "w")
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/null'
> c:\python23\scripts\watch.py(235)__init__()
-> self.output = open("/dev/null", "w")
(Pdb)
