Looks like kqueue won't quite cut it. Basically I want to be able to check a folder and see how it has changed and what program there are that made those changes. Monitoring the files seemed like the obvious solution, but if I can't access what process made the changes, then it's kinda pointless.

Would it be possible to have a program that watches a folder and gets notified whenever something is written to it? Is it possible to maybe even get information about the process that made the change (creating a new file, changing file contents etc)
