CudaText does not save files as root

[eltonfabricio10]

Is it possible to add the feature of saving system files(Linux) as root(like SublimeText)?
Currently CudaText open system files read-only.
Thanks!

I don't know how can my app do it, especially for linux.

sublime uses pkexec to copy temp file to descination as root

/usr/bin/pkexec /bin/cp /tmp/.subl567.tmp /etc/cron.daily/.placeholder

It gives a prompt to enter a password... on Ubuntu :)

it's interesting, I must try to integrate it...

I placed fixed beta to http://uvviewsoft.com/c/
pls test.
it uses 'pkexec' and 'mv' from root to copy to system dirs. but Cud shows then "File was changed outside" warning, press Reload in it. I don't know how to hide it.

Does not yet allow editing system files.
Files are opened read-only.

Version: cudatext_1.134.0.2-1_gtk2_amd64.deb
