    I have thought of this initially before doing it with Gtk2. But it
means a dual-process application (Hopman + a GUI written in Tk, PHP
...). In a mode of operation like inotifywait, a formatted message would
be emitted by Hopman to standard outputeverytime the status changes. I
probably rejected this solution because it implied to develop the two
programs, which at least is twice more work.

    If there are volonteers to develop the GUIs, I can think of this CLI
version.

    What? Hopman only watches device special files associated to
partitions, full stop.

    No need for a port, a simple anonymous pipe is fine.
