Hi All.

I looked for and have not found a standard way to configure emacs so that
when opened file has been deleted externally, the message box would be
displayed. I have written some workaround with separate timer, it works but
not well tested and seems too complex. Is there simpler standard way?

Maybe you want to put your function on kill-buffer-hook instead of using 
a timer? That could perhaps simplify the function too.
