25 ;;; Commentary:
27 ;; Introduction:
29 ;; Whenever a file that Emacs is editing has been changed by another
30 ;; program the user normally has to execute the command `revert-buffer'
31 ;; to load the new content of the file into Emacs.
33 ;; This package contains two minor modes: Global Auto-Revert Mode and
34 ;; Auto-Revert Mode. Both modes automatically revert buffers
35 ;; whenever the corresponding files have been changed on disk and the
36 ;; buffer contains no unsaved changes.
38 ;; Auto-Revert Mode can be activated for individual buffers. Global
39 ;; Auto-Revert Mode applies to all file buffers. (If the user option
40 ;; `global-auto-revert-non-file-buffers' is non-nil, it also applies
41 ;; to some non-file buffers. This option is disabled by default.)
43 ;; Since checking a remote file is slow, these modes check or revert
44 ;; remote files only if the user option `auto-revert-remote-files' is
45 ;; non-nil. It is recommended to disable version control for remote
46 ;; files.
48 ;; Both modes operate by checking the time stamp of all files at
49 ;; intervals of `auto-revert-interval'. The default is every five
50 ;; seconds. The check is aborted whenever the user actually uses
51 ;; Emacs. You should never even notice that this package is active
52 ;; (except that your buffers will be reverted, of course).
54 ;; If Emacs is compiled with file notification support, notifications
55 ;; are used instead of checking the time stamp of the files. You can
56 ;; disable this by setting the user option `auto-revert-use-notify' to
57 ;; nil. Alternatively, a regular expression of directories to be
58 ;; excluded from file notifications can be specified by
59 ;; `auto-revert-notify-exclude-dir-regexp'.
61 ;; After reverting a file buffer, Auto Revert Mode normally puts point
62 ;; at the same position that a regular manual revert would. However,
63 ;; there is one exception to this rule. If point is at the end of the
64 ;; buffer before reverting, it stays at the end. Similarly if point
65 ;; is displayed at the end of a file buffer in any window, it will stay
66 ;; at the end of the buffer in that window, even if the window is not
67 ;; selected. This way, you can use Auto Revert Mode to `tail' a file.
68 ;; Just put point at the end of the buffer and it will stay there.
69 ;; These rules apply to file buffers. For non-file buffers, the
70 ;; behavior may be mode dependent.
72 ;; While you can use Auto Revert Mode to tail a file, this package
73 ;; contains a third minor mode, Auto Revert Tail Mode, which does so
74 ;; more efficiently, as long as you are sure that the file will only
75 ;; change by growing at the end. It only appends the new output,
76 ;; instead of reverting the entire buffer. It does so even if the
77 ;; buffer contains unsaved changes. (Because they will not be lost.)
79 ;; Usage:
81 ;; Go to the appropriate buffer and press either of:
82 ;; M-x auto-revert-mode RET
83 ;; M-x auto-revert-tail-mode RET
85 ;; To activate Global Auto-Revert Mode, press:
86 ;; M-x global-auto-revert-mode RET
88 ;; To activate Global Auto-Revert Mode every time Emacs is started
89 ;; customize the option `global-auto-revert-mode' or the following
90 ;; line could be added to your ~/.emacs:
91 ;; (global-auto-revert-mode 1)
93 ;; The function `turn-on-auto-revert-mode' could be added to any major
94 ;; mode hook to activate Auto-Revert Mode for all buffers in that
95 ;; mode. For example, the following line will activate Auto-Revert
96 ;; Mode in all C mode buffers:
98 ;; (add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-revert-mode)
