Presumably you meant OSX and TextEdit.app, then?
With Edit.app -- of course then with Command key of my NeXT ;) --
there's no
problem at all:
OK, I do mean OS X and TextEdit.
Here is what I did:
went to the Apache htdocs directory (I don't have permission to write
there).
Opened up a .html file by dragging it to TextEdit icon in the dock.
added a space (so the document needed saving)
clicked apple-s
it said I don't have permission to overwrite, but I say do it anyways.
Then it says I can't.
and here is what the result is:
-rw-r--r-- 1 lbland admin 5248 Mar 8 10:28 2621-37294084-1.html
-rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 5248 Jan 21 09:11 index~.html
there use to be only one file there with the name "index.html".
Interesting, I experienced exactly the same thing the other day. It
wouldn't let me replace the file, but it did rename the old one anyway
and add the one with the cryptic name. Which begs the question, since it
already renamed the original file, what is stopping it from putting a
new file there with the name the old one used to have?
