Need a semaphore

[decibel]

I've got this working, and it looks pretty cool. There's a problem though... if a file changes while a command is running a second instance of that command will fire up. Is there a way to handle that, either in make or watch-make?

Somewhat related to this... if you've been editing multiple files for a single change and you tell you editor to "Save All", there's going to be a race condition between the editor, watch-make and make itself. I think it'd be useful if there was some kind of timeout where watch-make wouldn't run the target until it hadn't received any new notifications for at least X amount of time.

BTW, it looks like flock might be an option in the makefile, but that would still allow several (or at least 2) make runs to queue up. I think the right solution for this is a combination of the timeout I mentioned above, and not allowing multiple make commands to execute at the same time.
