SYNOPSIS

       waitfor [-t seconds] [-n] file

DESCRIPTION

       waitfor will wait for a file to appear, or with the -n option, for a file to disappear.  If a timeout is
       provided, with the [-t] option, if the file action doesn't happen within the time specified, the program
       will exit.

       The program will return 0 if the file action happens.  If no timeout is specified, waitfor will wait
       forever.  If a timeout is specified, and the file action does not happen within the timeout specified,
