Dear Mr A.Walton,
The template is the same. I shall give you an example of a situation.
In my ~/Templates folder, there is a file called New Word Document.odf
With this, if I right click somewhere in nautilus or the desktop, in the
context menu, I get the opportunity to create documents identical to
New Word Document.odf. That is the very aim of Templates, i.e., to
make life easier, to avoid several clicks to search for open office [or
any type of document] each time if one wants to create that type of
document.
The mistake here is like this:
If one has created a new document of that template, named as New Word
Document.odf then when he creates the 2nd new document of that
template, then:
Instead of giving the default name of the 2nd document as New Word
1.odf, [This is an automatic naming] it names it as New Word.odf 1,
i.e., instead of naming 1 at the end of the name, it rather appends 1
even after the extension , that is, odf, here. This makes nautilus think
that odf 1 is a new type of a file.
I sincerely hope that the information that you require has been detailly
described. These are small technical mistakes that may go unnoticed,
however, people new to gnome or linux will not know to handle correctly.
[They wont know that the mistake is caused due to extension error.]
Thanking You,
Yours sincerely,
--SRIRAM
