Which is quite unlikely in the case of text editors. When opening a document they open the file, read the content, and close it. Closing the document in the editor then generates no event on file system level! | |

I am able to catch the modified event by os.path.getmtime(filename).Actually I want to delete the file as soon as it is closed(both either file is close from a tab of notepad++ or normal notepad). User can modify a file many times before closing a file.
