Feature: auto refresh open files about cats HOT 3 CLOSED

Actually nodejs does have the required "watch file" functionality, I just
not implemented it yet in CATS. I agree would be nice feature to have, so
I'll make sure it gets on the todo list.

I like to keep the compiled JS file open to review it after compiling.

Currently, files that get updated on disk while open, do not automatically
reload/refresh - it would be nice to have an option to auto-refresh open
files on change.

If the underlying framework does not provide a way to monitor files for
changes, perhaps files could be polled for changes periodically, and/or
when you switch tabs?

I've implemented this in my last pull request.

This is awesome - it even picks up files I delete from outside the IDE!

Thanks, @cybrown ! :-)
