monitoring file modifications

Does the OS send out any kind of monitorable event when a file is modified on disk?

(I'm still working on fast, effective sync between a desktop and laptop, and the best way would be if each machine could keep a current list of its own modified files. The best way to do that, I think, would be if the sync program could listen for modified files instead of searching the entire directory structure every so often.)

Thanks,
--Dave
