Now more portable and correct memory flags are set.
change: Lsyncd will now bail on unknown error codes.
enhancement: settings.maxProcesses is now a global limit of childprocesses
enhancement: Lsyncd will refuse to startup when any startup rsync
does not work and returns "again", unless settings.insist or

enhancement: settings.maxProcesses can now be set as a global limit
of childprocesses
enhancement: Lsyncd will refuse to start when any startup rsync
does not work cleanly and returns "again" unless settings.insist or
--insist is specified, then Lsyncd will keep retrying until it works.
enhancement: option "rsyncBinary" determines which rsync Lsyncd calls.
Default is "/usr/bin/rsync"
enhancement: fsevents ("inotify for OSX") fixed for Snowleopard.

enhancement: settings.inotifyMode: the actualy Modification event
Lsyncd reacts to can now be configured. Default is to react on
file closing in write mode.

DESCRTIPTION
------------
Lsyncd(1) watches a local directory trees event monitor interface (inotify).
It aggregates and combines events for a few seconds and then spawns one (or
more) process(es) to synchronize the changes. By default this is rsync(1).
Lsyncd is thus a light-weight live mirror solution that is comparatively easy
to install not requiring new filesystems or blockdevices and does not hamper
local filesystem performance.
Lsyncd(1) watches local directory trees through an event monitor interface
(inotify, fsevents). It aggregates and combines events for a few seconds and
then spawns one or more processes to synchronize the changes. By default this
is rsync(1). Lsyncd is thus a light-weight asynchronous live mirror solution
that is comparatively easy to install not requiring new filesystems or
blockdevices and does not hamper local filesystem performance.
Rsync+ssh is an advanced action configuration that uses a SSH(1) to act file
and directory moves directly on the target instead of retransmitting the move
destination over the wire.
Fine-grained customizaton can be achieved through the CONFIG-FILE. Custom
action configs can even be written from scratch in cascading layers
ranging from shell scripts to code written in the LUA(1) language. This way
simplicity can be balanced with powerfulness. See the online manual for
details on the CONFIG-FILE http://code.google.com/p/lsyncd/wiki/Lsyncd20Manual

Note that under normal configuration Lsyncd will delete pre-existing files in
the target directories that are not present in the respective source directory.
