$ chmod +x something
$ emacs something
C-x C-w somethingelse
$ ls -l #shows that the executable permissions were not carried along,
as a convenience...
If you write the buffer into a different file, I don't see why the
permissions would be the same. However, this suggested to me that
maybe Emacs should always set the executable bit when you edit a file
in Shell Script mode. Is there any reason that would be bad?
