If we know the notification messages AmiBroker watches for to determine when
things like file changes...we could probably do the same from external
programs/editors.
Also, one the subject of editors, is there a single file that contains all
the function definitions and parameters in AFL?

Hello,
Yes Windows API makes it possible to detect that file has been modified
but...
a) with 1-2 sec delay (not immediatelly)
b) this does not work reliably on all drives. Specifically network (mapped)
drives are known
to have problems with that
c) watching large number of directories (entire tree) is resource consuming
But... yes I am considering this .
Best regards,
