Subject: Re: <filename> changed on disk; really edit the buffer?
Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2007 07:03:57 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1IuoJB-0006LD-5B@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <18242.27013.59638.550831@tower.localdomain> (jonathangoldblatt@yahoo.com)

    Also occurred to me that a possible use for auto-saving into the
    current file is when you don't have enough permissions in the
    current directory to create a new file.  

I think it would be better to put the auto save file in a different
directory.  In fact, perhaps we should change make-auto-save-file-name
to do this automatically.

Would someone like to try this?
