I am referring to the data indexer.  I understand that it uses something 
called iNotify within the Linux kernel and that is why it may not be a 
very nice port to *BSD.  I am wondering if it would be possible to use 
something like kqueue to notify the calling program of a disk write like 
iNotify does.

Just throwing out thought because I think that a desktop search tool 
would be well received with the desktop BSD community.
