au BufReadPost * if &readonly | set nomodifiable

Hi,
I have included the autocmd (listed below) in my .vimrc file.
au BufReadPost * if &readonly | set nomodifiable

The intention is to not let gvim even modify the read only files, which
works great with some downside.

It only works when I just start a new gvim window!!! If, in the same window,
I load a different buffer (by opening a new read only file) I have to go in
and manually do "set nomodifiable"... which is very annoying.

I tried to play around with the different au[tocmd] events
(http://www.at.vim.org/html/autocmd.html#BufReadCmd)
But, seems that I cannot get around the issue that I have.

Can any one give me some solution around it please.
I am just very annoyed when gvim asks you for a permission to modify a
readonly file. I would like for "nomodifable" to be set all the time for
readonly files.

please advise!?!

thanks in advance,
Rudy
