+         Say Y here to enable inotify support and the /dev/inotify character
+         device.  Inotify is a file change notification system and a
+         replacement for dnotify.  Inotify fixes numerous shortcomings in
+         dnotify and introduces several new features.  It allows monitoring
+         of both files and directories via a single open fd.  Multiple file
+         events are supported.
+
+         If unsure, say Y.
