This might have some bearing on people encountering errors when trying
to save stack files:
I was working today on a file with this name:
MIDI File Builder020525c1.rev
Previously, the name had been shorter and I had been having no problems
saving the stack file. When I expanded the name, I suddenly started
having problems: an apparent backup file with a name similar to that
above, but with a few different characters, would suddenly appear in the
same folder as the "real" file. I'd quit RR without saving the file I
was working on (no other option). This did not happen all the time, but
often enough to get me worried. Luckily, I always save multiple copies
of each incremental revision, so I didn't lose anything. I decided to
try shortening the name of the file to:
MFB_020525c4.rev
-and since doing so have not had any problems saving the file.
