title: inotify --fromfile directive
body: <p>I have a system fedora 15 with xfce window manager. </p>
  
  <p>I installed an inotify util to play with. </p>
  
  <p>I want to control, what happens with my files during my work process. 
  There is a command which i use today for running inotify </p>
  
  <pre><code>inotifywait --fromfile ~/list.inotify
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>That command easy read a list of folders and files to read and to ignore. 
  There is my list (list.inotify)</p>
  
  <pre><code>/home/alex
  
  @/home/alex/Torrnets/
  @/home/alex/.pulse-cookie
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So it should read my home folder and ignore Torrents folder and .pulse-cookie file.</p>
  
  <p>It ignores Torrents as well. But it won't ignore a .pulse-cookie file. </p>
  
  <p>Any solution for this ? (please don't post a solution to use pattern based ignore, i want to work with a file list with absolute path's) </p>
  
  <pre><code>$man inotify
     @&lt;file&gt;
            When watching a directory tree recursively, exclude the specified file from being watched.  The file must be specified with a relative or absolute path according to whether a relative or absolute path is given for watched directories.  If a  specific
            path is explicitly both included and excluded, it will always be watched.
  
            Note: If you need to watch a directory or file whose name starts with @, give the absolute path.
  
     --fromfile &lt;file&gt;
            Read filenames to watch or exclude from a file, one filename per line.  If filenames begin with @ they are excluded as described above.  If &lt;file&gt; is `-', filenames are read from standard input.  Use this option if you need to watch too many files to
            pass in as command line arguments.
