Description
--
FileWatcher is a Firefox extension which automagically reloads local files in the browser when the file is modified.
This by continuously checking for variations in the files timestamp and size.

The extension is only active in tabs browsing local files.
Enabling/disabling the extension is done through a button in the toolbar

The extension requires a newer version of Firefox (not determined yet)

How to install
--
When in Firefox, press Ctrl+O, select filewatcher-<version>.xpi, follow instructions
