I have never been able to figure this out. It looks to me like this only
works with manual filters: John writes:

start notifying +event CSOmnlns;
Description : Notify an application [when this happens]
Syntax : start notifying reference [when]
Value for 'reference' : an application to notify (an alias
or file reference)

Values for optional [when] (what to notify the application of)

[...]

* has manually filtered +constant eNotmFil;

It looks to me like scripts can only be triggered by 'manual filters'. Do I
misunderstand? Is it in fact possible to have 'automatic filters' trigger
scripts? That would be far out!
