-----------------------------+--------------------------------------------
When working with an attached file it seems that saving it (at least with
'gedit' on our file system) sometimes causes a temporarily disappearance
on that file. I have no idea, if this is caused by the
used file system (mounted NFS) , but sometimes I get from sage ( at least
for 6.4.beta6)
### detaching file /home/......./stuff.sage because it does not exist
(deleted?) ###
this can be emulated by
{{{
sage: attach ("~/stuff.sage")
console> mv ~/stuff.sage /tmp/; touch /tmp/stuff.sage; sleep 1; mv
/tmp/stuff.sage ~/stuff.sage
}}}
Proposal
1. add a little timeout to the detaching process (maybe already the case)
2. control the timeout by an optional timeout argument for the attach()
routine
