reread doesn't

[<pl...@pi...>]

Hi

I am producing a graph ( SVG ) by using load command.

To refresh it periodically, I have a pause and a reread at the end.

The problem is the reread does NOT reread the file. I seems to have an 
internal buffer and just pretends to reread.

I can not find anything that would force an actual reread of the file.


It would be extremely useful if it did really reread the file on disk 
since this would allow another process to modify it.

I seem to recall that there was some complication with this same 
functionality needing to support pipes or direct input.

Is there not a way to force a actual reload of the file? Maybe a ' 
reread really ' option.

regards, Peter.
