Subject: Re: [9fans] acme Put doesn't save
Date: Wed,  4 Mar 2009 15:10:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <138575260903040610u4950702es60d0e5c0f78503f2@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

While learning some of acme's basic commands I was also shocked by
this, and I agree with Ruda that executing a Put with a non-existent
file (e.g.  '/home/ruda/a' ;-) should save the contents of the window
in that file.
Probably there are other ways to do it, like Edit w /home/ruda/a, but
the ones I've seen so far involve a little more typing. Is it just out
of the question to implement Ruda's suggestion? (if it was a
suggestion at all)
It is just a little more comfortable, and it fits very natural into
acme, if you ask me.
