I care about windows, linux, and mac.  I gather, my options are:  
WCF (poorly supported in mono, right?), 
Remoting (which is supposed to be deprecated since WCF, right?), 
DBus (???)
Socket (cough cough)
Mutex (doesn't work on mac)
Named pipes (seems not available in mono, right?)

Maybe looping and polling the file isn't such a terrible solution after all.....
