This does not answer your request. I asked myslef the same question about
half an hour ago, becauase I copies an extensive directory structure from
CDR to my hard disk, with the nasty side effect that all files are marked as
read-only. Windows 98 explorer does not seem to provide any easy way to
switch all the files back to writeable. When thinking about a short Python
script I thought up the work around (which are needed all the time under
windows):
via the search window you can get all the files by searching for *; CTRL-A
selects all and then via properties youcan change all these files at once.
So for now I don't need the Python call to reset the read only flag :-)
