A small suggestion:
When reloading the file due to a file change alert HiEditor should remember the actual position in the file. This would be very helpful when watching logfiles (yes I know, tail would be a better program for those jobs).

Thx for your work!

@blues: You are probably right. I 'll fix it soon.

@QuoVadis: Your point is good, but I am rather skeptical what the actual position in the file is. Since the file is changed outside HiEditor, text might have been inserted /removed before the actual point, the file might have changed completely etc. I really need to hear your thoughts about this.

kewl :)

Well, I would say:

If reloaded file >= loaded file: jump to current position
If reloaded file < loaded file: jump to end of file (or maybe start but end is IMHO the more logical choice)
