SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/gam_server
DESCRIPTION
Gamin uses a client-server model. gam_server is the server which cen‐
tralizes client requests for monitoring files, gathers file events via
File Event Notification kernel API methods (see port_create(3C)), and
then sends modification events to application clients. It also shares
file events when multiple applications monitor the same file.

lard/gamin/config.html
