this is not a good idea, since a lot of times, you open a file with vi ust to view it.



this includes running a command line, then reloading the file (because
the date changes when i checkout the file), then let me edit it.

i want all to be automatically ( e.g. when i change the file)



ah, this makes more sense (i.e. the change operation causes the file to be checked out) but this ignores the fact that often one accidentally writes in a file without meaning to do so, and then immediately un-do the write operation).



i can always do 'uncheckout'

cheers,
