Hi everyone, I may be mistaken so here's what I think is wrong: When set 'autoread', the buffers should update automatically with new content as they appear in the files. But that isn't the case. A simple setting via the shell:
~ % while true ; while> do while> echo "line " $RANDOM >> flood.txt while> sleep 1 while> done and a 'tail -f' confirms flood.txt gets flooded. Issuing ''vim -u None -U None --noplugin -c "set ar" flood.txt'' only reads the stuff in the file at that moment, but nothing after it. I might strongly suspect a distribution specific issue, but aren't sure what I should check. So suggestions please. -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
