What does that mean?
It means you didn't understand an option, so you asked. This is good. But then you didn't wait for the answer, guessed something. Which is bad. Because you guessed wrong. Then you find out that the option does not what you guessed.
Still not stopping, you continue ...

The setting didn't work as I expected, no matter which
trousers I wear. :)
I guess the setting has effect when an external process changes a file
while Lazarus has focus. I did not test that now.
... and continue ...
I tested changing focus to another editor, changing and saving the file and
giving Lazarus the focus again.
... and continue ...
Then I always get the "files have changed on disk" dialog with a diff view
and everything. The setting has no effect for that.
... and continue ...
About the wording, Zeljan's version is best so far although it is not
proper English either.
"Check if files changed on disk" or "Check file changes on disk" is better.
... and continue.
Is this really clever?
Tested on Linux with QT bindings.
IMO an option to disable "checking files on disk" makes no sense. No one ever asked for that.
As I explained: The option is how to check for changes, not if.
About wrong trousers: see Terry Pratchett.
