Description: Ponytor
        =======
        
        A small command line utility and python lib to run automated things when files change 
        
        
        Installation
        ============
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            sudo pip install ponytor
        
        
        Usage - as command line tool
        ============================
        
        Syntax:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            ponytor PATH_TO_WATCH COMMAND_TO_RUN
        
        Example: this will run the working_on_this.py file each time it's changed (saved), printing the date of the run.
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            ponytor working_on_this.py "echo `date` && python working_on_this.py"
        
        
        Usage - as a python lib
        =======================
        
        The usage is really simple:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            from ponytor import monitor
        
            monitor('/path/to/monitor.txt', function_to_run_on_change)
        
        Example: the same as the command line tool usage example
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            from os import system
            from ponytor import monitor
        
            def my_callback():
                system('echo `date`')
                system('python working_on_this.py')
        
            monitor('working_on_this.py', my_callback)
        
        Or, a simpler way:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            from os import system
            from ponytor import monitor, build_command_callback
        
            monitor('working_on_this.py', 
                    build_command_callback('echo `date` && python working_on_this.py')
