There are actually two problems in your test:

1) What is watched is not a file path, but a file descriptor. The 
command "echo test > XXX" replace the "XXX" file by a new file with the 
same name, and that file is not opened nor watched by the test.

2) Once the end of file is reached, Gambas automatically stops the 
watch, even if new data is added to the file later. This behaviour is 
not a good idea, and I think I did it because sometimes file descritor 
keep being ready to read even if there is no data anymore.
