How to force 'write file?
[1/2] from: cyphre::seznam::cz at: 14-Feb-2002 15:20
Hello again,
I have another another filesystem-related problem:
How can I force 'write command to overwrite system and/or hidden files under
Windows XP?
>> set-modes %/d/test [hidden: true]
>> write %/d/test "test"
** Access Error: Cannot open /d/test
** Near: write %/d/test "test"
>>
or:
>> set-modes %/d/test/test [system: true]
>> write %/d/test/test "test"
** Access Error: Cannot open /d/test/test
** Near: write %/d/test/test "test"
>>
any thoughts?
regards,
Cyphre

Hi Cyphre,

I don't know how to make WRITE do it, but you could turn those attributes
off temporarily, write to the file, then turn them back on. Does anyone know
what the /custom refinements support?
