You could do it in any shell by replacing touch with a function or alias that sends a note to whatever GTK subsystem is responsible for the “recents” tab before making the file. A more comprehensive way would be either using inotify or kernel-level process tracing fuckery, but I’m not smart enough for that
Does bash have extensions? If not I know other shells do. Definitely something you could do there
