wait-for is a Python script that runs a command every N seconds until the command prints something new, prints a specific string or returns a given exit code.
If you just need to wait until the command changes output, you can also use
watch --chgexit cmd
so this script is mostly for when you need to wait
for a specific exit code / output.
