    <p>I have a system fedora 15 with xfce window manager. </p> <p>I installed an inotify util to play with. </p> <p>I want to control, what happens with my files during my work process. There is a command which i use today for running inotify </p> <pre><code>inotifywait --fromfile ~/list.inotify </code></pre> <p>That command easy read a list of folders and files to read and to ignore. There is my list (list.inotify)</p> <pre><code>/home/alex @/home/alex/Torrnets/ @/home/alex/.pulse-cookie </code></pre> <p>So it should read my home folder and ignore Torrents folder and .pulse-cookie file.</p> <p>It ignores Torrents as well. But it won't ignore a .pulse-cookie file. </p> <p>Any solution for this ? (please don't post a solution to use pattern based ignore, i want to work with a file list with absolute path's) </p> <pre><code>$man inotify @&lt;file&gt; When watching a directory tree recursively, exclude the specified file from being watched. The file must be specified with a relative or absolute path according to whether a relative or absolute path is given for watched directories. If a specific path is explicitly both included and excluded, it will always be watched. Note: If you need to watch a directory or file whose name starts with @, give the absolute path. --fromfile &lt;file&gt; Read filenames to watch or exclude from a file, one filename per line. If filenames begin with @ they are excluded as described above. If &lt;file&gt; is `-', filenames are read from standard input. Use this option if you need to watch too many files to pass in as command line arguments. </code></pre>
