Subject: [ANN] win32-changenotify 0.3.0

Hi all,

The Win32Utils Team is proud to annouce win32-changenotify 0.3.0

What is it?
===========
An interface for monitoring file and/or directory changes on the Win32
platform.

Synopsis
========
require "win32/changenotify"
include Win32

# Wait for any writes to files in the C:\ drive.
filter = ChangeNotify::LAST_WRITE
cn = ChangeNotify.new("C:\\",true,filter)
cn.wait{ |s|
puts "Something changed"
puts "File: " + s.file_name
puts "Action: " + s.action
}

What's new?
===========
The interface has been altered so that ChangeNotify#wait will yield a
structure (if a block is given) that provides more detailed information
as to what, exactly, the changes were.

See the documentation for more details.

Where is it?
============
You can find it on the RAA or on the RubyForge project page at
http://www.rubyforge.org/projects/win32utils.

Also, I have release a standalone .so file that you can download from
the RubyForge project page if you don't happen to have a compiler.  Be
sure to put it under a "win32" toplevel directory somewhere in your
library path.

Many thanks go to Park Heesob (again) for helping me with some sticky C
issues.

Future Plans
============
We are planning on an interface for Change Journals which will either
supplant or replace this package.  Keep an eye out. :)
Enjoy!
