If you feel like running test-all, then you need to start a terminal listener:
./factor -run=listener
Try running the io.monitors tests to see if inotify is working on your system:
"io.monitors" test
is /tmp some kind of special in-memory file system or something?

You've misunderstood how vocabulary roots work completely. the 'core',
'basis', 'extra' and 'work' directories are vocabulary roots. You can
add your own vocabulary roots. For example, if you add /tmp/work to
FACTOR_ROOTS, then next time you start factor, you should be able to
do
vocab-roots get .
and see something like
V{
"resource:core"
"resource:basis"
"resource:extra"
"resource:work"
"/tmp/work"
}
Now, you when you do
USE: foo
Factor will look for it in the core/basis/extra/work directories in
the source tree, as well as /tmp/work.
With the scaffold tool, you can just do
'"/tmp/work" "palindrome" scaffold-vocab
To create a vocabulary in your own vocabulary root.
However resource:work (as well as resource:basis, etc) will always
point to the the Factor source tree. This is how its supposed to work.
