 Function fs.isReadOnly | |
| Checks if a path is read-only (i.e. cannot be modified). The path need not exist in order to perform this test. Note that the root directory and the mount points of any floppy disks are considered read-only, perhaps because they cannot themselves be modified, only their contents can be. | |
| Syntax | fs.isReadOnly(string path) |
| Returns | boolean false if path can be written to, or true if not |
| Part of | ComputerCraft |
| API | fs |
Examples
 Example | |
| Checks that the "rom" directory is read-only, as its name implies | |
| Code |
print(fs.isReadOnly("rom"))
|
| Output | true |
