OK so it seems like a permissions thing.

I can create and remove "home/user/.myscripts/a.txt with FileBox but I can't do either with Hamster with run as root on or off.

However /home/user/MyDocs/a.txt will create and delete with Hamster.

It seems files with root permissions are not editable with Hamster.

Code:
ls -la
drwxr-xr-x  2 root   root  4096 Dec 23 16:41 .myscripts

sudo chown user .myscripts/
ls -la
drwxr-xr-x  2 user   root  4096 Dec 23 16:41 .myscripts

sudo chgrp users .myscripts/
ls -la
drwxr-xr-x  2 user users  4096 Dec 23 16:41 .myscripts
After the above all working perfect.

I must have created the folder with filebox set to "run as root"

Can Hamster not warn of bad permissions?
