&gt; I&#39;d like to make some FRPish toys that keep files updated to have<br>
&gt; functional relationships with other files.  hinotify looks like just<br>
&gt; the sort of underlying magic I could use for efficient implementation<br>
&gt; on linux.  Is there any support for mac os x?  Could support be either<br>
&gt; added to hinotify or maybe inotify and a mac-friendly library be<br>
&gt; abstracted into a common Haskell interface?  I&#39;m fine with an<br>
&gt; imperative interface, since I can abstract into a functional library,<br>
&gt; which I guess would be a sort of persistent simplified FRP.<br>

ReadDirectoryChangesW. A platform-agnostic Haskell library for detecting<br>
filesystem change notifications is something that I would really<br>
appreciate!<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>launchd does everything on mac os x, like literally everything.  My mother said if I can&#39;t say something good about someone or something then don&#39;t say anything at all, and in this case, I&#39;m taking her advice on what I think about launchd, however if you click the link below you might get an idea of how that works on Mac OS X.</div>
