Detailed Description

The AutoFile class is used to automatically reload files when modified.

It works by using a timer sensor that triggers an idle sensor at regular intervals. The idle sensor then checks if the loaded file has been modified, and triggers a new timer sensor that reloads the file after a given delay. A delay is needed to avoid trying to load the file while it is being written by another process.
