new feature
New feature "Save Copy As" yes! I've been wanting this missing feature ever since playing with Scite, I know it sounds simple, but if you deal with code and make backups all the time this feature is priceless, hope for more to come!
Save As?
What's the difference between that and Save As?
I think that would mean the
I think that would mean the file it references after saving is the original.
Thanks
for the fast update John!
Works as expected - the save copy as feature seems handy.
Something of real concern....
for some reason when i use notepad++ and i am scrolling through text, my flash drive makes a noise, literally. and this only happens with notepad++. the sound is like a soft electrical shock type sound, it happens when i have a lot of text to scroll through and it happens usually when i scroll down say 3-4 lines with the scroll wheel and sometimes when i scroll up. i am also sure that it is my flash drive because i removed it while using notepad++ from it and scrolled and didnt get the sound. i have not gotten this problem with any other program so i dont know what is going on.
