xemacs people,
i found a bug in ffap.el: if you try it on, e.g.
/etc/unreadable/file
it will not pick it up, if unreadable is e.g. rwx------ and
owned by not you. if you are not aware that there might be a permissions problem, you wil
go crazy trying to debug it.
the solution is to go ahead and pick it up, prompting the user as usual. if the file is
not readable, then regular find-file will complain.
fancy fix would be to tell the user about the permissions.
xemacs 21.4 patch 6 common lisp
thanks
