man kqueue. It works well enough, but the API -- copied from FreeBSD -- is the usual inscrutable Unix cruft[*].
Yes, I have glanced at this on a few occasions :/ I do indeed plan to change to kqueue, make folder-scanning lazy etc. Though there still is a problem with network mounted drives with regard to auto-refresh. Though with lazy folder-scanning, refreshing a folder would just be to collapse/expand it in the outline.
To the OP, I don't think it's a common problem that the automatic folder refreshing is not working, so adding an explicit button to refresh them seems a bit drastic.
