The problem with this method is it misses all changes that don't send NSWorkspace noteFileSystemChanged messages, which seems to be almost all of them.

e.g. downloads from most tools, anything happening at the BSD layer, shell access, etc.

Unfortunately, you're exactly right there.

You have to resort to polling the file system itself to keep up to date.

How do you do this?

Thanks,
