This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com Hello. I want to synchronize the a folder on my iBook with a folder on my desktop using Unison. It would be much preferred if the synchronization took place automatically when a file changes, rather than when I run the command manually or at set intervals. I do not want to load down the system with polling possibly more than three thousand files. How can I have a program notified when a file inside a folder is created, modified, or deleted? I know fs_usage will show when a file is accessed, but it doesn't always give a full path. How do programs like Quicksilver and Spotlight get that instant notification? PGP.sig
