This switches the device hotplug detection in the evdev listener from using inotify directly to using the notify crate, which abstracts filesystem watching across platforms. Benefits: - Cleaner dependency (notify is already used for status --follow) - The notify crate is better maintained and more widely used - Prepares codebase for future cross-platform support The notify crate uses inotify internally on Linux, so behavior is unchanged on the primary platform.

Superseded by #129 which includes the macOS support with additional features (menu bar, notifications, Homebrew packaging). Thank you for the foundational work on macOS support! |
