Hi Patrick,

It's apparently a bug in Pyste: the permission bits from the filename 
were being copied to the tmp file. So, I guess your file was read-only, 
and Pyste couldn't open it for append. I fixed the bug in CVS, could you 
please update and check if it's ok? I could test it only on Windows.

Thanks for the report Patrick!
