Command not being run in Linux

-g '.' means you're using the glob pattern ., which only matches files named . (i.e. the current directory). Normally with -g you'd use a pattern like *.c or something. If you want to try out reflex with any kind of file then you could use, for instance, -r '.'.

Closing since I don't think there's a problem here. Leave a comment if you disagree.

I meant to watch for changes in the current directory though.

Yeah, but that's not how -g works. The glob pattern has to match the file that's changing. If you want to match any regular file in the current directory you could use -g '*'.
