[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Geany does not respect write-protected .geany files (#2863)

[drws]

@eht16 It's very simple actually, I only wanted to use them as session presets. Although hacky, it was working great until the read-only warning has been introduced in later versions. The warning itself isn't problematic, but the fact that it constantly pops up. A partial solution would be to warn only once per file and suppress subsequent warnings. A more thorough solution would be #2304 (which would also solve #2864). Instead of "write-locking" the file, configurable "session autosaving" would probably be more understandable while having practically the same effect.
