I know that fact and it is fixed now. But are you sure, that RHIDE asks
ever for any opened file?? When I remember correct, the bug was in the
fact, that I gave the opened file the last modification time from
a call to ftime() which is second accurate, but the time, which
is stored on disk for a file is 2second accurate, so there was
sometimes a difference of 1 second only because of rounding.
