That's a good point.
Is it realistic to implement it this way given the current state of
Etoile? Do the Etoile target platforms support this?
I also don't know how to do it. :-> Is it an Etoile extension?
In EtoileExtensionsKit framework, there is a protocol UKFileWatcher
to support this feature. However there is a concrete implementation
only for kqueue enabled system (like FreeBSD, Darwin, NetBSD and
other BSDs too I think now), the name of the class implementing
kqueue support is UKKQueue.
It should be possible without too much difficulties to write a
similar class implementing UKFileWatcher protocol on Linux by relying
on inotify API (or dnotify if the kernel is a bit older).
For Solaris, well I don't know whether such kernel API is provided or
not. Not sure Solaris is really a target for us right now ;-)
