      public static void main(String[] arg)

      Watch a folder and send any DICOM files that appear to a network remote Storage SCP AE.

      The verbosity level controls the detail of the logging to a graphical user interface and has not been replaced with calls to the SLF4J logging framework. It is ignored if there is no graphical user interface, in which case messages are sent to the the SLF4J logging framework at the INFO logging level.

      Parameters:
      arg - none if parameters are to be requested through a graphical interface, otherwise an array of 4 to 6 strings - the fully qualified path of the watched folder, the remote hostname, remote port, and remote AE Title and optionally our AE Title and a verbosity level of 0 or 1
