Is there anything in the standard library to help writing a file watcher?

I have something like this implemented for windows. It watches a entire 
directory including subdirectories (optional) and tells you which files 
changed upon request:

I don't think its possible to imiplement this cross-plattform. You will 
have to reimplement for every plattform you need it on.
