+The problem here is a matter of timing.
+The default file system watcher, used in windows, polls the filesystem
+every 750ms. Your program opens, closes and deletes the file much
+faster than that and so no events are generated. The solution? A
+native implementation for windows...
+
+IF you add a small delay after closing the file and after deleting it,
+you'll get the events.
