-A daemon to monitor filesystems events with inotify on Linux and run tasks like filesystem operations (copy, move or delete), a shell commands or custom async python methods.  
-It is possible to schedule tasks with a delay, delayed tasks can be cancelled again in case a certain event occurs. A useful example would be to run tasks only if a file has not changed within a certain amount of time.

+It is possible to schedule tasks with a delay, which can then be canceled again in case a canceling event occurs. A useful example for this is to run tasks only if a file has not changed within a certain amount of time.
