So what I need is this behaviour:
In the other thread, Erik Huelsmann asked:
- In what respect does CodeWarrior (or your tool) treat read-only files
It will simply not change them on it's own nor let the user change the file.
- When should files be set read-write, when read-only?
They should be set to read-only if they are up-to-date AND unmodified, and
- When is it ok to overwrite a read-only file?
Always, but it usually will be modified.
- If a file is copied, does it retain it's attributes?
Yes.
- Does that include read-onlyness?
Yes.
- How do directories fall into this picture?
They are handled fine as is.

Thanks for this great tool,
