Oh yes, right, I forgot.
I guess I chose my solution to get rid of the
(yes-or-no-p
(format
"File %s is write-protected; try to save anyway? "
(file-name-nondirectory
buffer-file-name)))
query every time when saving. With my solution, I have to toggle the
read-only flag only once and avoid the annoying `yes-or-no-p'.
Thanks,
Michael.
