This arranges for filesystem events pertaining to FILE to be reported

The returned value is a descriptor for the added watch. If the
file cannot be watched for some reason, this function signals a
`file-notify-error' error.
FLAGS is a list of conditions to set what will be watched for. It can
include the following symbols:
`change' -- watch for file changes
`attribute-change' -- watch for file attributes changes, like
permissions or modification time
If FILE is a directory, `change' watches for file creation or
deletion in that directory. This does not work recursively.
When any event happens, Emacs will call the CALLBACK function passing
it a single argument EVENT, which is of the form
(DESCRIPTOR ACTION FILE [FILE1])
DESCRIPTOR is the same object as the one returned by this function.
ACTION is the description of the event. It could be any one of the
following:
`created' -- FILE was created
`deleted' -- FILE was deleted
`changed' -- FILE has changed
`renamed' -- FILE has been renamed to FILE1
`attribute-changed' -- a FILE attribute was changed
`stopped' -- watching FILE has been stopped
