option to disable "Files Changed on Disk" dialog - add icon to buffer tabs instead
Submitted by on Tuesday, 29 June, 2004 - 15:13
I often use jEdit to effectively "tail" log files that are active and changing periodically while editing other files.
Unfortunately, the dialog "Files Changed on Disk" pops open repeatedly and has become an annoyance, although the information is certainly helpful.
It would be wonderful if there was an option to disable this dialog.
Furthermore, it would be even better if we had an appropriate icon appear on the respective buffer tab indicating that the file changed. That way we could see at a glance which files have changed on disk and continue editing files at the same time.
Anyone else second this request? Alternatives?
Thanks,
Paul
