Subject: auto-revert mode broken?
Date: Mon, 02 Oct 2006 10:44:14 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87r6xqrd4x.fsf@pereiro.luannocracy.com> (raw)
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,
