Please note that `global-auto-revert-mode' reverts ALL Emacs buffers when the underlaying file changes. This isn't just active for the iCal.org buffer, but for all open buffers. If you like this behavior, ok, but if you prefer it for the iCal.org buffer only, enable auto-revert-mode (without global-) via a file-local variable in it: http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/File-Variables.html > > On Sun, Sep 16, 2012 at 2:08 PM, Charles Philip Chan <cpc...@bell.net> wrote: >> Ken Mankoff <mank...@gmail.com> writes: >> >> Hi Ken: >> >>> Right now I'm running ical2org via cron and re-generating iCal.org >>> (redirecting stdout with ">").
