Why when I do:



$ kate file.txt & 


and



$ fuser file.txt 


I've got empty list. After all, kate process opens file.txt

    Depends on how kate manages its files. A better test would be to run tail -f file.txt and then fuser file.txt while tail is running. Also what does lsof file.txt say?

It means that when you run fuser file.txt, process kate has already finished accessing the file.



Adapted from the manpage: fuser displays the PIDs of processes currently using the specified files or file systems.
