Hello,

PLEASE add a read-only toggle to the status bar that allows the user/programmer to make selected
individual files that are opened in the editor read-only.

If the user has one original file and a second working version that they are modifying both open in the editor,
being able to lock the original as "read-only" would prevent unintentionally modifying the
original file, instead of the intended working copy, particularly if the names similar eg. somefile.php and
somefileorig.php.

PhpED honours the Windows read-only file attribute and won't even let you type into a read-only file.

Whilst slightly less convenient than a toggle, in the Workspace panel you can do a right-click on the file to bring up the popup menu, click on Shell Menu > Properties and change the file to Read Only.

The file should be readonly in NuPhere not within his properties!

I also would like a simple way at PhpEd to prevent the file from changing so this is for feature request.
