Variable: auto-revert-interval

auto-revert-interval is a customizable variable defined in autorevert.el.gz.

Value

5

Documentation

Time, in seconds, between Auto-Revert Mode file checks.

The value may be an integer or floating point number.

If a timer is already active, there are two ways to make sure that the new value will take effect immediately. You can set this variable through Custom or you can call the command auto-revert-set-timer after setting the variable. Otherwise, the new value will take effect the first time Auto-Revert Mode calls auto-revert-set-timer for internal reasons or in your next editing session.
