Add file watching capabilities to EmulationStation (!314) · Merge requests · recalbox / recalbox-emulationstation · GitLab

Bkg2k requested to merge filewatching into master Feb 03, 2020

First implemented applications:

Watch all gamelist.xml: On change, ask the user to reload ES (avoid ES to overwrite external modifications)
Watch theme files: On change, ask the user to reload ES. Allow theme developers to work, test & debug faster.
Watch external file /tmp/emulationstation.quitnow to exit immediately on external request.
