error. You will see it once each session, but only once. The recent
files list will not be saved for when you restart IDLE the next time.
It is up to you to determine why it cannot be written in your home

Before IDLE tries to write to $Home/.idlerc/recent-files.lst it reads
it, so it exists. It does this on startup. Something or someone other
than IDLE made it read only.
