Ok, so no editor is able to write to a file with append attribute.
So is that attribute mainly for log files?
Thanks.

An editor changes the contents of the file, changes could be anywhere, not just at the end. Therefore the whole file is re-written on save which is not an append operation.

I added the append only attribute to a text file.
But I get operation not permitted when I try to use Geany to edit the file.
But I can use "echo new >> test.txt and it does append.
What am I not understanding?
Thanks, Andrew Kennedy
