again IMPOSSIBLE TO SAVE

Most of the difficulties disappeared when I delete all 1.1.1 files; but 
NOT ALL  of them!. The worst deals with saving and the file name.

1°) I can save the stack I am working on, and even modify its name 
and/or label, BUT (for instance)
"put name of this stack" returns "Litteris 1.1.1 ß"
"put the long name of this stack"  returns "...desktop/Litteris 1.1 
o.rev"
and the actual name of the file on my desktop is still "Litteris 1.1 o" 
  (with no .rev)

This file opens my stack "Litteris 1.1.1 ß" that can be used, modified  
and saved all right.

2°) If I try to modify the file name, I am back with the impossibility 
of saving and I end up with two icons: the previous one and a file 
labelled, for instance, "Litteris 1.1.1 ß.rev~" that won't open:  
leaving or removing the tilde I get the same "...Revolution has 
unexpectedly quitted" as soon as I click on it.

3°) If I try to use the "SAVE AS..." item, I get the same result as in 
2.

Now my question is:
How can I have a file stack with the correct name?"
and, just to satisfy my curiosity:
- where this "ß" (radical, umlaut u) replacing the last character, 
comes from?
- why the saved file, when resavable, doesn't receive the .rev suffix 
as did the file of my stack "Polylexis" which never gave me any trouble?
