Our system powers-that-be have decreed that the only emacs style editor
supported on our UNIX machines will be JOVE (Version 4.9).  While I have
nothing against JOVE, there are a couple of functions I would like that it
does not seem to have.  Can anyone help me with the appropriate scripts to
put in my .joverc file.

1) When using a previous version of JOVE (version unknown), I could edit a
file that did not have write permission.  When I tried to save it, JOVE gave
me a message saying the file was read only, but did I want to write over it
anyway.  If I answered "yes", it did so.  I found this very convienient
because I like to keep the write permission turned off on certain important
files, like my calendar, to prevent accidental erasure. ( I did that once.)
But some of these files need to be updated frequently, so this feature would
be nice.

2) I would like to be able to right justify text.  We had an old version of
gemacs that did that, but its gone now.

Any help would be appreciated.
