Ok interesting. Forgive my ignorance, but a kqueue notifies the workspace of changes to the file system?

Except for network filesystems. (My home area is on a network filesystem...)


The functionality im looking for is literally, here is a folder, drop X file in there which executes Z operation in the application.

Doesn't Finder let you attach AppleScript to a folder? Why not use that, rather than monitoring the folder yourself?


Kind regards,

Alastair.
