watch

I just learned a new unix command -- one I could have used many times in the past... watch.

I've copied or removed large directories of files and have run 'df' many times in a row to either see how much was freed or see how close I was getting to a full disk. If I had done, 'watch df', it would have made it much easier. Now I know. :)
