IDE Reload file button does not work

Not sure if I am doing something wrong or misunderstand its use, but the Reload file button in the IDE does not work for me in either the Chrome app or standalone app on Windows 10, and never has in previous Windows 8.1 versions as well. Since I do most of my editing in an external Notepad++ tab this would be very handy.

Hmm - thanks - it definitely looks broken. Maybe it should be removed? Presumably very few people use it if this is the first time someone's reported a problem?

If you're using an external editor, have you considered just using EspruinoTools? npm install espruino

You can make it watch a file and auto-upload when it changes

@gfwilliams, Thanks. I tried the EspruinoTools. Nice for an old commandline guy. In fact I just made a pull request, or at least attempted to, for a job file enhancement to simplify typing commands. Let me know what you think.
