NAME

       fspy - filesystem activity monitoring tool

SYNOPSIS

       fspy [options] [file/dir]

OPTIONS

       -F, --filter STRING/REGEX
	      a  string  or  regular  expression  which will be used to filter the output.  (the regex will be matched against the whole path e.g.
	      [/etc/passwd])

       -I, --inverted STRING/REGEX
	      its the same like -F/--filter but inverted. you can combine both.  e.g. -F '.conf' -I  'wvdial.conf'  will  filter  for  files  with
	      ".conf" in its name but without "wvdial.conf" in it.

       -R, --recursive NUMBER
	      enables the recursive engine to look at a depth of NUMBER.

       -A, --adaptive
	      (HIGHLY-EXPERIMENTAL)  enables  the adaptive mode. e.g. if new items will be added within the path fspy will automatically add those
	      items to the watch list.

       -D, --diff VALUE
	      (EXPERIMENTAL) enables the diffing feature.  VALUE may be a comma separated list of: s - element size (byte) A -	last  access  time
	      (e.g. Mon Jul 21 21:32:31 2008) M - last modification time (e.g. Mon Jul 21 21:32:31 2008) S - last status change time (e.g. Mon Jul
	      21 21:32:31 2008) O - permissions (octal) U - owner (uid) G - group (gid) I - inode number D - device id

       -T, --type VALUE
	      specifies the type of objects to look for.  VALUE may be a comma separated list of: f - regular file d - directory s - symlink  p  -
	      FIFO/pipe c - character device b - block device o - socket default is any.

       -O, --output VALUE
	      specifies  output format.  VALUE may be a comma separated list of: f - filename p - path d - access description t - element type s -
	      element size (byte) w - watch descriptor (inotify manpage) c - cookie (inotify manpage) m - access mask (inotify manpage | src/fsev-
	      ents.h)  l  - len (inotify manpage) A - last access time (e.g. Mon Jul 21 21:32:31 2008) M - last modification time (e.g. Mon Jul 21
	      21:32:31 2008) S - last status change time (e.g. Mon Jul 21 21:32:31 2008) O - permissions (octal) U - owner (uid) G - group (gid) I
	      -  inode	number	D - device id T - date and time (for this event) (e.g. Tue Mar 25 09:23:16 CET 2008) e.g.: '[,T,], ,d,:,p,f' would
	      result in: '[Mon Sep  1 12:31:25 2008] file was opened:/etc/passwd' (take a look at the README).
