Re: [Inkscape-user] inotify was (Google Summer of Code (raster functionality))

I'd "flip over" to the Gimp and do some editing and hit save. Then I'd "flip back" to Inkscape. At that point it would check and then pop up a dialog informing me that files changed on disk and ask if I would like to reload.

Checking for changes if the app gets (back) focus sounds like a reasonable idea! And most common situations should be covered by this. (Still I vote for inotify :)
