Re: Can't save... insufficient user rights

There are not 'invisible files'.
There is a 'convention' that states that files named '.something' are not
shown in a 'ls' listing unless some specific switches are used.

The 'dot' at the beginning, however *IS* part of the name of the file.
Try a:
find . -type f
and you will find it every time.
