If it's smart enough to do that, it should be smart enough to know the files/folders will be read-only and fix them as needed, before generating those extra files.

what do you mean by smart? the app simply writes the files into cwd, it is not interested in any filesystem flags

In all actuality, it shouldn't be able to create those files in a read-only directory without first clearing the read-only attribute.

but it is able to do that


and you would use -r probably when saving anything so you should be able to create new file there


But the directory is marked read-only. You *shouldn't* be able to create new files there, or delete existing ones.

but you *are* able to do that
