[Feature request] periodically check if open files were touched from outside #9169

@i-make-robots

Description

@i-make-robots

In Windows 10, most IDEs and text editors will notice that a file was changed by some other application. Arduino is a notable exception.

Test case:

  • use ide to load file from disk
  • touch the file from some other application.

What's expected:

  • "Warning: File has changed on disk. Reload ? [yes]/[no]"
  • if yes, reload file without losing other files (unsaved work in other tabs)

What happens:

  • nothing.

Possible method:

  • repeating 5s timer that watches file last touched time.

Thank you, stay awesome!
