Service without Icon or Window?


  • Subject: Service without Icon or Window?

I need to make an application  that runs a bit as a 'service' if you will.  Not in the sense of running from the "Services" menu but something the tuns continually in the background with an Icon in the Dock or a Window of it's own, that monitors when files are added or removed from a directory

So basically I have two requirements

Monitor the contents of a directory

Run without visibility?

Can anyone send me to some pointers for how to do either, or both, of these tasks?

Thanks,
Jay
