That's quite a nice approach; so the document should live update as you
save in the new editor. Unfortunately I don't believe that we have a
good system abstraction for this currently - so, we would probably want
a thread / idle handler that sits there polling the file every second
(on the second to save power).

And you're a good beginner - persisting with it :-) Thanks !
Great stuff,
