Thanks. I tried auto-revert-mode and auto-revert-tail-mode on
MS-Windows, and they both seem to work as expected (after I fixed the
minor issues described in my other mail).
I see only one problem: if you manually "M-x revert-buffer RET", a new
file watch is added, although the old one is still active. AFAICS,
you rely on the watch descriptor local var be non-nil for avoiding
this, so perhaps revert-buffer reverts that variable as well? Or is
this a Windows-only problem?
