<smile> I know this means work folks, but I, for one, support the idea, and
in turn will support the effort, I'm a good tester, so lay it on me, I'm here
enough to lend a hand, and I think it would be a useful feature, and time
saver.

NO IT'S NOT!
(Why are we all screaming at each other about this?????)
/home/davel$ type watch
type: watch: not found
/home/davel$ ls -l /usr/local/bin/watch
ls: /usr/local/bin/watch: No such file or directory
/home/davel$ watch
bash: watch: command not found
(I hasten to add that I couldn't care less whether watch is there, for
myself. I'm just being picky, again. <sigh>)

The use of capital letters should be strictly regulated, I think. The use
of profanity should be subject to a board of editors who have the power
to censor, suppress, and exercise prior restraint. Or we could just try
to be a little more restrained, on or own, in our responses. My ears are
hurting.

There's a copy in janc's directory, /u/janc/bin/watch. To watch some
people type "!/u/janc/bin/watch whoever whoever whoever".

Is it possible that we could put watch in /usr/local/bin?

If I recall, Jan didn't because he didn't want to take responsibility for
maintaining it. (Jan, the logic of keeping it in your own dir for this
purpose escapes me a bit.) So maybe all that's needed is for some other
staffer to be willing to agree to do this.

Probably someone should repair the -s problem, and install it in a system
directory.

Okey dokey. I copied in Rob's fix for the -s problem, and copied watch to
/usr/local/bin. The source I played with is currently
/u/popcorn/source/watch.c.
