beagle r4880 - trunk/beagle/tools

New Revision: 4880
URL: http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/beagle?rev=4880&view=rev

Log:
Use a custom while loop instead of the 'watch' command in beagle-status. Fixes #556002. Apparently, in FreeBSD Linux's watch(1) does not exists, and FreeBSD has a watch(8) command to "snoop on another tty line".
