Watch and compile existing scss folder with compass

Question

Hi I am working on a project which already comes with an scss and css folder with existing files within them. I have compass installed and I am trying to get it to watch the scss folder and compile the changes to the css folder. If i use

 compass create 

it generates all of its own folders. If I use

 compass create . --bare --sass-dir "scss" --css-dir "css"

it says the config.rb file already exists. And if I use

 compass watch

it says there is nothing to compile. Any ideas where I am going wrong? Cheers!

You can also run Sass with the --compass flag to load Compass. This makes it easy to slot Compass into an existing Sass project.
