Technically you can, you just don't get a meaningful event.

var watch  = require('node-watch');
var watchHandler = function(filePath) {
    require('fs').stat(filePath, function(err, stat) {
        if(err && err.code == 'ENOENT') {
           // file was removed or no longer exists
        }
    });
}
watch(config.inbox, { recursive : true, followSymLinks : true }, watchHandler);

Will be added in the next version. Thanks @crh3675 for the comment.

[edit]

watch('somedir', function(event, filename) {
  //same with fs.watch
})

#22
