X-Spam-Status: No, score=0.0 required=5.0 tests=none autolearn=failed version=3.0.4 In recent builds of emacs from CVS (actually the unicode-2 branch) I find auto-revert acting strangely. If I open /var/log/syslog, for example, the buffer will be read-only as expected since I don't have write permission. Eventually, though, the file will change on disk and I'll get the message syslog changed on disk; really edit the buffer? (y, n, r or C-h) and the buffer will have become modifiable. Does anyone know what's up? I have (global-auto-revert-mode 1) in my .emacs Thanks, - -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel ------- End of forwarded message -------
