Run a command when a file is changed

~ What is it?

Tired of switching to the shell to test the changes you just made to your code? Starting to feel like a mindless drone, manually running pdflatex for the 30th time to see how your resume now looks?

Worry not, when-changed is here to help! Whenever it sees that you have changed the file, when-changed runs any command you specify.

So to generate your latex resume automatically, you can do this:

$ when-changed CV.tex pdflatex CV.tex

Sweetness!
