File Watcher and VCS (Perforce)

Hi,

Hopefully I'm missing something... But I have a custom File Watcher that "pre-minifies" my angular javascript files, and it works perfectly. The only issue is that I want to store the resultant file into source control. If the file is in source control, I must manually open the file for edit before editing the source file.

Is there a way to have the editor check out the file for me?

Thanks,
