watchless

Latest release: version 0.2.0 - 12 July 2013

watchless is a Python clone of the standard Unix watch command with the addition of paging support along the lines of another standard Unix command, less.

Requirements

  • Python 2.4 or greater with the curses module available (should be present on Unix-based systems; Windows has no support by default, although some Cygwin builds may have it and there are third-party libraries claim to implement it -- your mileage may vary).

Usage

./watchless.py [options] <command>

Options

  • -v, --version - show program's version number and exit
  • -h, --help - show a help message and exit
  • -n <seconds>, --interval=<seconds> - time to wait between updates [default: 2.0s]
  • -p, --precise - rather than waiting interval seconds between one run finishing and the next starting, try to time it so there are interval seconds between each run starting. If the command takes longer than interval seconds to run, then it will be run as often as possible.
  • -d, --differences - highlight the differences in the output of sequential runs of the command. If you want to highlight all the positions that have ever changed (i.e., a 'sticky' highlight), use --differences=cumulative. Note you cannot use -d cumulative as this leads to an ambiguity (is cumulative an argument or the command to execute?) since the argument is optional.
  • -c, --color - interpret ANSI foreground colour sequences in the output.
  • -b, --beep - beep if the command exits with a non-zero return code.
  • -e, --errexit - exit if the command exits with a non-zero return code.
  • -t, --no-title - do not show the header with the command and last execution time.
  • -r, --no-return-code - do not show the last return code in the header at the top of the screen.

seconds between each run starting. If the command takes longer than
interval seconds to run, then it will be run as often as possible.
  • -d, --differences - highlight the differences in the output of
sequential runs of the command. If you want to highlight all the positions
that have ever changed (i.e., a 'sticky' highlight), use
--differences=cumulative. Note you cannot use -d cumulative as this
leads to an ambiguity (is cumulative an argument or the command to
execute?) since the argument is optional.
  • -c, --color - interpret ANSI foreground colour sequences in the output.
  • -b, --beep - beep if the command exits with a non-zero return code.
  • -e, --errexit - exit if the command exits with a non-zero return code.
  • -t, --no-title - do not show the header with the command and last execution time.
  • -r, --no-return-code - do not show the last return code in the header at
the top of the screen.

watchless
Latest release: version 0.2.0 - 12 July 2013
watchless is a Python clone of the standard Unix watch command with the
addition of paging support along the lines of another standard Unix command,
less.
Requirements
  • Python 2.4 or greater with the curses module available (should be present on
Unix-based systems; Windows has no support by default, although some Cygwin
builds may have it and there are third-party libraries claim to implement
it -- your mileage may vary).
Usage
./watchless.py [options] <command>
Options
  • -v, --version - show program's version number and exit
  • -h, --help - show a help message and exit
  • -n <seconds>, --interval=<seconds> - time to wait between updates [default: 2.0s]
  • -p, --precise - rather than waiting interval seconds between one
run finishing and the next starting, try to time it so there are interval
seconds between each run starting. If the command takes longer than
interval seconds to run, then it will be run as often as possible.
  • -d, --differences - highlight the differences in the output of
sequential runs of the command. If you want to highlight all the positions
that have ever changed (i.e., a 'sticky' highlight), use
--differences=cumulative. Note you cannot use -d cumulative as this
leads to an ambiguity (is cumulative an argument or the command to
execute?) since the argument is optional.
  • -c, --color - interpret ANSI foreground colour sequences in the output.
  • -b, --beep - beep if the command exits with a non-zero return code.
  • -e, --errexit - exit if the command exits with a non-zero return code.
  • -t, --no-title - do not show the header with the command and last execution time.
  • -r, --no-return-code - do not show the last return code in the header at
the top of the screen.
