I use archivemount ( FUSE  Filesystem  in Userspace) to mount an archive, with 
an empty directory as mountpoint. Writing to that mountpoint is handled 
transparently by archivemount: changes in the filesystem are visible 
immediately, but only written back to the archive on unmount. 

Geany can open both files that pre-existed in the mounted archive, and files 
that are changed or newly created after mounting the archive to the mountpoint.

But Geany's 'File/Save' operations are lost. You get the message "11:35:28: 
File ... saved.", without any error message, but the change is lost, the file 
is not changed, not even it's timestamp.

When you save an existing file with 'File/Save as' to it's existing name, the 
change is lost as with 'File/Save'.

'File/Save as' to a new filename works without problems: the new file is 
created, and it's contents saved.

I tried several other programs (command line, Libreoffice Writer, mousepad) 
with and during the same mount, and they have no problem saving existing nor 
new files. I suppose it is a Geany problem.
