I'll then realize that the changes were a complete mistake and C-_ back to point a without saving (which I shall call point c). For some reason, when using tramp, I notice that the this file is changed from the saved version flag (the `**' on the status line) is not set for points a, b, or c. This is, of course correct for point a b, but not for c. Oh, boy. I have no idea how Emacs works when you do that. Hm. Hm. I can reproduce the behavior. But how does Emacs normally know that the file has changed? Hm. Does anybody know what is going on behind the scenes? kai -- ~/.signature: No such file or directory

I can't say for sure that it's related to the problem you describe, but it sounds suspiciously like it, from some of the things I noted with TRAMP2. Do you know any details on when does Emacs call verify-visited-file-modtime? I suppose if the Perl file-attributes implementation is used, Tramp could implement that operation, too. I don't know that much about the internals of Emacs, sorry. XEmacs certainly uses it every time it wants to find out if a file has changed behind it's back... Daniel -- ...Two and two are four.
