As changes made by one user are not notified to other users unless they refresh. which at the moment requires leaving the folder then coming back into it. | |

    Is inotify a possible answer for this question, too? If so, please answer that question.

    Thanks, I'll update the answer. It's not even 9AM here and I've already learned something new. (and to be honest, I found famd to be too much of a hassle; a kernel solution would be ideal)
