[Gambas-devel] Project feature request to follow symbolic links and allow to edit/save them.

Hi,

I want to request a new project preference which -when enabled- will
allow to edit/save files where a symbolic link points to.

Now symbolic links are displayed with an 'symbolic link' icon which is
ok but the files are opened read only.

I have two big projects sharing as much as 90 files.

I can somehow understand the current behavior, but all unix editors
(vi, gedit, file browser) allow you to edit the files when opened
through their symbolic links.
So the current behavior is kinda unconventional.

Thanks!

Regards,
Ron.
