I'm using Emacs v24.3.1 on Windows 8.
I had a file change on disk while I had an Emacs buffer open with that file. As soon as I attempt to make a change to the buffer, a message appears in the minibuffer.
Fileblah.txt changed on disk; really edit the buffer? (y, n, r or C-h)
I would expect to be able to hit r to have it reload the disk version of the file, but nothing happens. Emacs completely stops responding to input. None of the listed keys work, nor do any other keys as far as I can tell. I can't C-g out of the minibuffer. Alt-F4 doesn't work, not does Close window from the task bar. I have to kill the process from task manager.
Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong here?
In cases it's various modes not playing nice with each other, for reference, my init.el is here. Nothing complex. Here's the breakdown:
better-defaults (ido-mode, remove menu-bar, uniquify buffer `forward, saveplace)
recentf-mode
custom frame title
visual-line-mode
require final newline and delete trailing whitespace on save
Markdown mode with auto-mode-alist
Flyspell with Aspell backend
Powershell mode with auto-mode-alist
Ruby auto-mode-alist
Puppet mode with auto-mode-alist
Feature (Gherkin) mode with auto-mode-alist
The specific file was a markdown file with Github-flavored Markdown mode and Flyspell mode enabled.
