By design, autoread only takes effect when the buffer is unmodified.
Otherwise, any unsaved changes in Vim would be lost. :help W12 says
"This message is not given when 'buftype' is not empty" so if your
script has a clever way of syncing up the unsaved buffer with the disk
contents, this may be the way to go. Make sure you DO have a way of
syncing up though, or your changes in Vim or on disk could easily be
lost.
