Use files named guide for per-project scratch space in acme.

I'm not sure that's the best one-liner for what I mean.  I used to use
directory windows and unnamed windows made with 'New' for scratch
space in Acme.  Now I create a guide file for the project I'm working
on and use it for temporary notes, commands, and the names of files
that I'm working with.  The commands get an appropriate working
directory, the notes get some context (i.e. what project they go
with), and I don't get warned to save the file when I exit, but I can
still save it if I want to.

Micah
