Subject: ffap: Directory does not exist, create it? Yeah sure, without permission
Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2003 02:30:15 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87smu960g8.fsf@jidanni.org> (raw)
Using ffap, many a mistype causes the often seen
Directory does not exist, create it? (y or n)
Well, as 99% of the time, the answer is n, at least it could check
if the user could indeed create a dir there before asking, as the
answer would be
Creating directory: permission denied, /etc/nurdly/
anyway.
Better would be just to assist the user in typing the names of
existing files, i.e. don't wipe out what he has typed so far...
