command: !neko wishlist remove tape measure

result:

exit status 1
&{%!s(int=32768) + cmd='remove tape measure'
+ wishlist=wishlist.txt
+ '[' -f wishlist.txt ]
+ wishlist_remove 'remove tape measure'
+ printf '%s' 'remove tape measure'
+ sed -E 's/^remove +//g'
+ item='tape measure'
+ '[' -z 'tape measure' ]
+ sed -E 's/^tape measure$//g' -i wishlist.txt
sed: can't create temp file 'wishlist.txtXXXXXX': Permission denied
  %!s(int=0) %!s(int64=0)}

it appears that wishlist.txt was somehow created just fine and nekobot has write perms, but new files in the root cannot be created. this is a problem on the production machine as it doesn't happen in my local testing.

i propose creating a directory called var/ and making sure the permissions are correct on startup, then either:

  1. running scripts inside of it (or even a subdir?) so anything they write in $PWD will go there
  2. just having it available and making a note in the readme if u want ur scripts to be able to write stuff.
