Need Help??

in reply to Anyway to determine path being monitored with Win32::ChangeNotify?

my $dir = $ARGV[0];

my $notify = Win32::ChangeNotify->new($dir, 0, 'FILE_NAME LAST_WRITE S

just run it as script name and the arg will be the dir you want to monitor. what is more interesting than this is getting the names of the files/dirs thats changed :)
