I have been trying to use emacs as a development environment. I edit one
or more files, save the files, execute the make command, then edit the
files again. When I try to change a file I get a message

[file] Changed On Disk; Really Edit The Buffer 

Then when I save it I get the message

[file] Has Changed Since Last Visited Or Saved. Save Anyway?

By reading the documentation I believe this is connected with file locks
but since I am the only one on this machine I would like to get rid of
the messages. Is this possible without getting into the lisp functions?
I am using Eli's initialization file  as the default.el. 

Thanks, Jim Chapman
