Meant to get back sooner - covid-19 & other stuff going on. In answer to your question (highlighted), yes, uh no, uh... maybe?
I want Geany to automatically show if a file was opened w/o correct permissions to edit & save in same path, the way many editors do. In Geany, you have to *manually* go into a menu to mark it RO. If you opened a file w/o correct permissions, it is read only, as far as editing & saving it to the same location.
Apparently Geany doesn't have prefs to automatically change tab style for files opened as RO?
Many editors allow preferences to change tab BG and / or font color for files opened as RO. The editors that offer such prefs, probably do it for a reason. Thanks.
