;;; Commentary:

;; Introduction:
;;
;; Whenever a file that Emacs is editing has been changed by another
;; program the user normally have to execute the command `revert-buffer'
;; to load the new content of the file into Emacs.
;;
;; This package contains two minor modes: Global Auto-Revert Mode and
;; Auto-Revert Mode.  Both modes automatically reverts buffers
;; whenever the corresponding files have been changed on disk.
;;
;; Auto-Revert Mode can be activated for individual buffers.
;; Global Auto-Revert Mode applies to all file buffers.
;;
;; Both modes operates by checking the time stamp of all files at
;; given intervals, the default is every five seconds.  The check is
;; aborted whenever the user actually use Emacs.  Hopefully you will
;; never even notice that this package is active (except that your
;; buffers will be reverted, of course).

;; Installation:
;;
;; To install this package, place it in somewhere on Emacs' load-path,
;; byte-compile it (not necessary), and place the following lines in
;; the appropriate init file:
;;
;; (autoload 'auto-revert-mode "autorevert" nil t)
;; (autoload 'turn-on-auto-revert-mode "autorevert" nil nil)
;; (autoload 'global-auto-revert-mode "autorevert" nil t)

;; Usage:
;;
;; Go to the appropriate buffer and press:
;;   M-x auto-revert-mode RET
;;
;; To activate Global Auto-Revert Mode, press:
;;   M-x global-auto-revert-mode RET
;;
;; To activate Global Auto-Revert Mode every time Emacs is started the
;; following line could be added to your ~/.emacs:
;;   (global-auto-revert-mode 1)
;;
;; The function `turn-on-auto-revert-mode' could be added to any major
;; mode hook to activate Auto-Revert Mode for all buffers in that
;; mode.  For example, the following line will activate Auto-Revert
;; Mode in all C mode buffers:
;;
;; (add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-revert-mode)

;;; Code:

;; Dependencies:

(require 'timer)
(eval-when-compile (require 'cl))


;; Custom Group:

;; The two modes will be placed next to Auto Save Mode under the
;; Files group under Emacs.
