Viddy

Modern `watch` command with time-machine rewind, history browsing, pager support, and diff highlighting.

Desktopfreeglobal

A modern replacement for the classic watch command that runs a command periodically and shows colorized output with diff highlighting, saved history, a time-machine rewind and replay mode, pager viewing, Vim-like keymaps, and text search. It helps diagnose when monitored values changed by letting sysadmins and developers browse and replay past outputs; it is open-source under the MIT license and intended for repeated monitoring rather than one-off runs.
