Is there an option somewhere, to make 'reload current document' automatic??
There are certain files, such as output from running PcLint, that get updated repeatedly;
while clicking 'reload current document' works fine, it would be nice if it would just automatically do it...
If that is already in options somewhere, please just point me to it!!
I've been reading through the options dialogs repeatedly, and every time I do, I find something else that I was previously looking for!!

Re: option: reload current document
Well, I *thought* I had found it, but not quite...
I enabled:
Log File Monitoring: Monitor current file
It underlined the 'close' box for the file in Red, and it detected *one* change in the file, but the next change was not detected.
I tried this with 'Follow tail' both selected and not selected, no change in these results...
===============================
Later note:
Well, it's more complex than that...
RJTE seems to recognize *additions* to the file, but it does not recognize removal from the file...
So, in this case:
When I add an erroneous line to my source file, the log file changes are recognized, and I see this:
However, when I correct the errors and re-run lint, the log file changes to the following...
but RJTE does not recognized the changes, until I manually reload
Actually, this looks like a bug to me; should I log it as such??

Re: option: reload current document
Do you have "Warn if document has been changed by external program" option checked (Options > File > Miscellaneous)? If so, then when RJ TE regains focus, modal window appears, asking if you want to reload the document. You can click on "Always" and then theoretically you would always have "fresh" version of said file (upon editor re-focus, I presume).

Re: option: reload current document
AHA!!! What I needed to do was turn 'reload current document' *OFF* !!!
Then, with your option enabled, this now updates fine in both cases!!!
Thank ye again, pjj !!!
