1. Open two files (A and B) in PyScripter
2. With a single copy operation (from the shell or explorer), overwrite
both of them with other two different files.
3. Switch back to PyScripter. A messagebox will appear telling that A (or
B) is changed and asking if the user wants to rewrite.
4. After pressing Yes, the file is reloaded, but the modification of B is
not detected.
I would expect the editor to popup multiple consecutive messagebox for each
changed files. Or in alternative, a single dialog showing all changed files
together, asking whether I want to reload them (and which of them) or not
(Komodo does this).

Since we are at it, I would love an option called "automatically reload all
changed files without asking, unless they currently have unsaved
modifications in PyScripter, in which case please ask me". Other editors
have this option, because when working with a SCM it's VERY important to
NEVER miss an update operation. It's usually *much* better to even *lose*
unsaved modifications rather than missing an external update (which you
could then revert without noticing); this is because usually there are only
a few unsaved modifications (programmers do save very often, this is not
Word :)). So really, asking if you want to reload or not when working with
SCM is like asking "do you really want to ignore this update and screw the
repository?".
