Also, can anyone point me to a newbie tutorial about NSWorkspace
for detecting file system change notifications?
NSWorkspace can only tell you about file system changes that *your*
app generated. There are a list of NSNotifications you can
subscribe to in the class reference for NSWorkspace. If you google
for "NSWorkspace" the class reference is the first result.
If you are interested in getting notifications for all file system
changes you might want to look into the kqueue API. It is a low-level
BSD notification facility that shipped with 10.3. It will let you
subscribe to file system change events. Run a "man kqueue" for a more
detailed description. There is also a nice paper about it here:
