Is there a tool similar to this one on MacOS?


It's literally the only thing from windows I miss. NTFS gives you a journal of all FS events that's virtually instant for "free" (only free as in no additional cost beyond what windows is already incurring, there's definitely overhead). In my limited research Mac APIs like FSEvents are not enough to recreate this.


This reminds me a lot of live queries in BeFS.

I like how 30+ year old NT architecture comes back again to solve things in ways that no other major OS has developed since then.


Spotlight, cmd+opt+space
