Doesn't Work With "watch"

[theGeekPirate]

Using watch then changing a file, sloc doesn't output the results again.

Still doesn't seem to be working =(

Tested by saving one of the files that "grunt-contrib-watch" was watching, and the rest of the plugins run, but grunt-sloc does not.

Cheers!

Can I show your Gruntfile.js or Project? And error log.

Oh whoops, I found my issue, sorry about that!

Forgot to include 'sloc' in the watch tasks, this is what I get for being a newbie blush

[rhiokim]

Yep!! :-)
