I saw kicker the other day and thought: I could write that in a minute!

So I did.

$ pip install punt

$ punt 'du -sh'                   # list file sizes, update the list when a file in cwd changes
$ punt -w tests/ -w lib/ py.test  # run py.test when any file in tests/ or lib/ changes
$ punt -w info.yml py.test        # run py.test when info.yml changes
$ punt -l make                    # only monitor "local" files (don't observe subdirectories)
$ punt --info -w src make         # show info like command status
$ punt --help
$ punt --version

punt is a tiny tool, just one __init__.py file. It uses watchdog to monitor file changes, and docopt to parse command line arguments.
