File watcher in SDL

Hi,

Does a file watcher in sdl makes sense?

Like some platform independent way of watching for files, is this something useful in the context of sdl? We were thinking about it for our resource management stuff.

Any idea if there’s any C library with a permissive license to base some concepts on?

I think is a good idea

Not only watching files but also searching, creating, removing and renaming them, the same for folders and maybe even for symbolic links. If done in platform-independent way, I would love it.
