Watcher Limitations

Watches Are Not Updated When File Based Scripts Change

edit

When you refer to a file script in a watch, the watch itself is not updated if you change the script on the filesystem.

Currently, the only way to reload a file script in a watch is to delete the watch and recreate it.
