Hi, i have a similar issue both on vista and xp. I made a small investigation
and i think this is a bug. Here's how to reproduce:
1. Open a new blank TXT file.
2. fill it from the very start with 255 characters ('a' for example). Important
- do not put any new lines (CR and/or LF)
3. Try to save - the save dialog opens.
4. Add one more character - the total number of characters will now be 256.
5. Try to save - BOOM. The save dialog does not show
Reason: PSPad adds a default save name for the file in the save dialog taking
the first line until the first CR/LF encountered. Since the string is 256 chars
and the EOF or CR/LF is after this PSPAD takes these 256 characters as the file
name, but windows accepts file names shorter than 256 - so something breaks in
the file save dialog.
Ways to ago around: Add CR/LF before the string gets 256 chars. Or - use
template other than TXT. For the custom types PSPAD does not make autoname from
the file contents.
