I've heard a Japanese talked on automatic counting of craters, where
it can, probably, recognise the crater right(?), actually which is the
problem here.   By the way, he is a programmer probably, and not a
Planetary geologist, and had thought it might be usefull.   Is it usefull?
No.

In your example, are you going to have a huge list of files to be watched?
