Command Line Tools for Productive Programmers
I didn't know of entr, or inotify at the time. Years ago, I wrote a script that did mostly that, but I've found myself to instead rely on a script to rerun things based on global hotkeys. It scratches a different itch, but in case you want to check it out [0]
In short, you set up a global hotkey to trigger the rerun of a "key"-ed command. Then you can quickly run a command, which can be rerun with that hotkey.
