Are you sure?  

As I wrote in my last post to the list, I will get this message after I run 
KFileReplace.  The change will have been made to the files on the DISK, but 
the working BUFFERS that I am editing will have been UNchanged.  

I then have to click on the radio button labelled "Use the version from the 
disk", and then click the "OK" button.  This becomes tedious if I am editing 
a large number of files.

If this screen did not appear, I would lose my changes. 

I presume it would be dificult to have KFileReplace to directly change the 
working buffers, so the next best option would be to have a 

   "File->reload All" sub-menu item, 

... in addition to the existing 

   "File->reload" sub-menu item.

Does anyone know why such a sub-menu item does not already exist? Is there a 
way to work around this apparent omision?  Perhaps a script or some kind of 
macro?   

Or, do I need to change my KDE settings (which, are in fact, less than ideal, 
as it takes well over 5 minutes to boot on my Debian Sarge system, which is 
surely inordinately long.)

TIA 

James
