proposal: with-file-writeable

2018-02-10 Thread Gábor Boskovits
the make-file-writeable function seems a bit too imperative to me, it would look better if we could have a with-file-writeable function, so that we can constrain the size effect, and more. Moreover if a file is read-only to start with, it might be a good idea to keep it that way anyways. WDYT?
