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.
