files already opened are not refreshed when reopened #674

The problem can be seen by when you

1. Open a file
2. Edit that file with another editor
3. Open the file again

The file should be refreshed, with the contents of the updated file.  
Pyscripter does not update the contents of the file when the file is already 
open.

This problem arises in version 2.5.3.0 x86 with Windows 7 enterprise, SP1.

PyScripter automatically detects file changes and by default reloads the 
changed files.  There are two IDE options (Tools, Options, IDE options) 
controlling this:

"Auto-reload changed files"  (Under Editor) and
"File Change Notification"  (Under IDE)

Are these option not working for you?

If you want to replace the current version of the file with the version on disk 
there is a specific command for this:

File Reload...

Well, this feature doesn't work very sensibly.

A bigger problem:  save a new file from Pyscripter itself into a directory 
previously imported into the project.

The new file doesn't appear as part of the project.

Sort of dumb.  You have to manually manage the project. If a directory is in 
the project, then it's in the project.  You could distinguish some sort of 
"static folder" as a named list of individual files, which is what you really 
do now.  But, that is such an edge case.  Not the way anyone works, especially 
given the way git works:  a folder IS a project in git.  git sort of trumps 
Pyscripter.
