It builds a local database of your computer. Than it scans those hashes each day - hour. When change is detected, it gets added to a list. In that way you have an overlook of what files have changed with or without the user knowing. That is what my application is meant for. So I understand what you mean, but it's not really the same.

I said technically. It isn't exactly the same but does the same thing with a different route and different agenda. The idea is good though, will be interesting to see how it pans out.

But; you need to remember that files such as databases and so on are constantly changing so you must have exceptions too. Shoot the application at me when the *nix version is out. I'd like to see how it works. It is interesting.
