The 'autoread' option does this. This works well in gvim because there is an
implicit
:checktime
when gvim regains the input focus. See :help timestamp.
If you want a vim in a terminal to refresh, or gvim without getting the input
focus, one can use the client-server stuff to tell vim to check if the file has
changed. See :help client-server.
