Probably there is a bug... however, there is something that emacs is
doing right in the process of writing and re-opening the file.
I tried debugging my program, by going step by step through the
(write-file "foo") and (insert-file-contents "foo") functions, to see if
I could figure out where was the conjuring trick done. However, I did
not quite found it (that is why I appealed to the list).
Any ideas as to what should I look for in debugging these functions?
(perhaps what are the likely functions that emacs is using that I could
hack from emacs itself, so as not to have to save and re-open?)
Is my best bet to look at the (write-file "foo") or at
(insert-file-contents "foo)?
