* FIX (url)

== DESCRIPTION:

Ruby bindings for the KQueue event framework

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

* Simple block based definition of event triggers.
* Unified interface for all event types.
* Supported filters: VNode

== SYNOPSIS:

  include RubyKQueue
  
  it "should register and trigger events when watching" do
    FileUtils.rm_rf '/tmp/blaa'
  
    $ret = nil
  
    t = Thread.new { Event.handle }
    Event.register("/tmp", VNodeEvent, VNodeEvent::WRITE) do
      $ret = 42
    end
  
    File.open('/tmp/blaa', 'w+') {|f|}
  
    sleep 0.001
  
    $ret.should == 42
  end

== REQUIREMENTS:

* FreeBSD/OSX/Other KQueue supporting OS
* RubyInline + C compiler (I'll inline package soon enough)
