Read only files.


Hello all,

Apologies if this is covered already somewhere, I was unable to find it if so.

I noticed that when editing a file owned by root that has read-only permissions only, mode 0444, jed doesn't seem to emit a warning or any kind of signal to indicate this. Is there a way to get jed to signal when I'm editing a file like this?

If not, I propose that this would be useful addition. Take, for example, files under RCS, which are mode 0444 when checked-in. If jed were to tell me that I'm editing a file that is read-only on the file system, that would be a good way to remind me that I may need to check it out first.

Thanks and best regards,


--Misha
