Re: Feature suggestion: file reload

["Mike Rhodes" <mike rhodes gmail com>]

Kpdf has a really nice implementation of this -- they will reload the
PDF automatically and put you back where you were in the PDF.

One of my friends was doing exactly the same thing with latex->PDF, so
if he found a mistake he could change the source, recomplie and then
see the results of the change really easily -- especially as he would
be back in the right place in the file after the reload.
