+inotify-simple
+
+inotify_simple is a simple Python wrapper around inotify. No fancy bells
+and whistles, just a literal wrapper with ctypes. Only ~100 lines of
+code!
+
+inotify_init1() is wrapped as a file-like object, INotify(), holding the
+inotify file descriptor. INotify().read() reads available data from the
+file descriptor and returns events as namedtuple objects after unpacking
+them with the struct module. inotify_add_watch() and inotify_rm_watch()
+are wrapped with no changes at all, taking and returning watch
+descriptor integers that calling code is expected to keep track of
+itself, just as one would use inotify from C.
