I used the example 2 in the inotifywait manpage as the starting point
for my script. Using the close_write, create & move events worked well
for me. Looked at incrond - seemed overkill/overcomplicated - chose not
to use it.
But if it's fighting with something else in the background trying to do
the same thing - it going to be a circular battle.
