Hey all,

Yesterday I was happily using "jade --watch --pretty app" to automatically watch all my .jade templates.

Today this has stopped working. When I execute "jade --watch --pretty app" it successfully finds and compiles all my Jade templates ... once. It does not pick up any changes to those files and will not automatically recompile them.

If I explicitly set the file it works as expected, e.g. "jade --watch --pretty app/assets/my_jade_template.jade"

Can anyone explain what's going on here?

I am experiencing the exact same problem.

There is no chance this is related to the Mountain Lion release, I have seen elsewhere that it has caused some odd problems with other file watching software.

If I add a new file to the directory it seems that that file is picked up and then all my changes are picked up. However making changes to the file then results in nothing.
