Hello,

I ran strace and this is what I'm getting from it when I change that
setting:

1072:open("/home/evo/.xchat2/xchat.conf", O_RDONLY) = 6
9065:open("/home/evo/.xchat2/xchat.conf.new", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, 0600) = 
10
9242:rename("/home/evo/.xchat2/xchat.conf.new", "/home/evo/.xchat2/xchat.conf") 
= 0

I guess it can't open the new file before saving it to xchat.conf, could
you investigate why?
