in thread Using Trigger Files

Bah! Can't edit Parent Node.

This is what I meant by using the cron. I could easily put in a line to run my script every ten minutes (which would check for files every 10 minutes), but I was just wondering if there was an easy way to do "triggers".

Although the more I think about it, the more sense it makes to run it as a cronjob, mainly due to your point about dying / restarting.

Just a whimsical query more than anything...Thanks for the useful replies & insights as always...
