[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Opening a read only file - locks up with error mesage (#2104)

[elextr]

@eht16 you need faster reactions to send the popup away before it times out again, or a longer timeout :)

Seriously though there should be a way of telling autosave which buffers to save (or rather which not to save, having the default to be save).

Readonly files, intentionally deleted files (see #673) etc, there are many times when autosave will try to save when it can't or shouldn't.  The user really should have the option to say not to save the buffer.
