Of course, I will now have to modify my own statement because I just encountered
this bug. I brought in two 'new' files that I needed to look at together. But
when I loaded one, the other would disappear. So I need to modify my algorithm:
"Files that I am currently working in a lot should be kept in the editor
in preference to files that I am not working in that much, unless I
have just loaded them, in which case they should stay around at
least for a little while so that I have a chance to work in them
before they disappear!"
See definition of terms below.
