+\versionadded{2.6}
+The \class{WatchedFileHandler} class, located in the \module{logging.handlers}
+module, is a \class{FileHandler} which watches the file it is logging to.
+If the file changes, it is closed and reopened using the file name.
+
+A file change can happen because of usage of programs such as \var{newsyslog}
+and \var{logrotate} which perform log file rotation. This handler, intended
+for use under Unix/Linux, watches the file to see if it has changed since the
+last emit. (A file is deemed to have changed if its device or inode have
+changed.) If the file has changed, the old file stream is closed, and the file
+opened to get a new stream.
+
+This handler is not appropriate for use under Windows, because under Windows
+open log files cannot be moved or renamed - logging opens the files with
+exclusive locks - and so there is no need for such a handler. Furthermore,
+\var{ST_INO} is not supported under Windows; \function{stat()} always returns
+zero for this value.
