Description

OS: Android
Terminal: Termux

I split the screen into three parts. One to write code. One for the input file and the last one for output file. After running the code the output file changes but it doesn't auto reload. I have to manually reload it all the time. Is there any option or way to make the file auto reload.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in micro on Android through Termux using a three-way split: edit code, run it with an input file, and view the output file. Check whether the output pane remains unchanged after the file is modified externally, then define the expected automatic reload behavior and verify it with a focused reproduction.
