modx template-ing in files not in the db

So I've got the template files working correctly. Sort of.

The static resource does render. But when I make changes to the file, I MUST hit save in the Modx ui before the changes show up in the output. Is there any way I can turn the cache off all together? Or at-least have some kind of 'watch' system that refreshes the cache on file save? I would really like to start using modx, but so far the templating work flow is really painful.

There has got to be a package for this. But so far my googling has come up short.

Thanks SO!

You just need to turn off "cache_resource" in system settings. ( http://rtfm.modx.com/display/revolution20/cache_resource ) Do not forget the end of the development process to return the setting to its original position. You can make yourself a reminder directly in the file, for example: <!-- Partial Resource Cache is Off Now -->
