Files overwriting
Submitted by mgiacoma on Tuesday, 10 January, 2006 - 10:50
When I use the "save as" feature, the editor does not "warn" me in case I choose a file name already exists. I would like to be warned in such case because it happens (not so seldom...) that someone, distracted by a colleague, overwrites the wrong file (thinking he's really saving the file using a *new* name).

Do you think it may be useful?
Many thanks!

Matteo

I tried, whenever I use "save as" I am warned if the file does exist. Can you be more specific in describing what happens? What version of jedit? I use the 4.2 final
