Thanks Joe,

A most welcome point. I'm using Rev 3.0 on Vista and XP for some
mission critical applications, and have not found any significant
problems. I agree a title like this one can put others off.

Bernard,

I suspect your save issue has to do with some plugin doing an
auto-save. I've always disliked the 'auto-save' types of plugins as
you never know exactly what and when you're saving.
You're welcome to use my altArchive plugin, which saves and creates a
serialized backup. Also, I have a stackFormat plugin I wrote awhile
back which also saves in legacy format. Note, these have not been
tested on Linux that I'm aware of. Just enter into msg:

go URL "http://www.gadgetplugins.com/altplugins/StackFormat.rev"

and

go URL "http://www.altuit.com/hemtools/altPlugin/revAltArchive.rev"

HTH,
Chipp
