Technically, it should. I have a theory, though:
The changes the user makes are saved in RAM. When the file is
saved, the BN must take the changes and put them into ROM. The
message one gets when, I suppose, this process fails includes
either the word "reading" or "writing", making me suspect that
the transfer of the changes is what causes the problem.

Hi everyone;
I have not used the worde processer for a while, but I thought
space e saved and exited you out of the document. If I am
correct, what is the complaint. How could it be deleting any
data when it is saving the document?

Hi,
Rachel writes:
I have had occasions when writing an email, or editing a
document, that
I've done something really stupid, and did not want those
changes to
remain. In that case, I was very glad of the feature you are
complaining
about. There have also been occasions when I, too, have hit
that escape
key one too many times, and lost something I'd been working on,
so I
totally understand your frustration. But I wouldn't want there
to not be a
way to just get out of a document or email without saving any of
the
changes! So, for me, it comes down to just remembering to be
careful. I
hope this makes sense!
Actually, if you're in the word processor and want to abandon
whatever
you're working on and lost any changes that you made, pressing
backspace
with q should do it. There's a qwerty equivalent but I forget
the keystroke
at the moment. In any case, you're asked whether you want to
lose current
changes, to which you reply y or n.
