You can use the libdispatch to monitor file changes (using DISPATCH_SOURCE_TYPE_VNODE).
You can also use a kqueue to look for change on a specific file. If you want a Cocoa wrapper, there is the well known UKKQueue class available on the net. Both solutions are far more efficient if you have to monitor only a couple of files.
