IIRC the main reason why I disabled g_file_set_contents() for remote files was that GVfs does for remote files the same thing the option in Geany provides: first saving to a temporary file and then move the temporary file to the target file. I didn't assume g_file_set_contents would make any difference for remote files. OTOH I know that the GVfs-Fuse backend isn't that stable and has lots of bugs, especially with some FTP servers. If there are no objections, I'll apply the patch soon. > 2. (Possibly, but not necessarily) make this option > (use_save_file_saving) accessible through the GUI Really? I think this would cause mainly just confusion. It just isn't that easy to explain what's the story behind this option. No idea. Regards, Enrico -- Get my GPG key from http://www.uvena.de/pub.asc
