Read-only mode (viewer mode) when called as "rox" or with -r about ox HOT 4 CLOSED

This is an interesting idea, I do want to add a read only mode for files that aren't able to be written to due to permissions or other factors and will consider adding a way to use this from the command line interface. :)

Note: that should be an option like '-r' and user can alias it as "rox" because rox is already to launch file manager ROX-Filer.

I've added a read only mode that will open a text file and not allow any edits in 0.2.7 but I will further this feature to allow input from the stdin in later versions, probably the next one.

Implemented in Ox 0.3.3

You can use the -r flag to open files as read only
Passing information from stdin can be done as follows (as an example):

tree | ox --stdin -r (to dump the output of the tree command into a readonly ox document)
or
ox --stdin <<< "some string" (redirecting some string into ox via stdin)
