The watch command is a large add on script that comes with junk. Once
run It will open an external command window where it will not show any
output unless a file in the junkdir has been added, removed or
changed. The watch is updated every 15 seconds and keeps track of all
changes in that time

This script has been specifically designed for Linux mint 17.3 and at
current time has no cross compatability. The terminal emulator that
must be used when running this script is the Xfce terminal. Without
this emulator then the watch script will fail to run.
