Na - I'm not. Like it too much and invested far far too much...
That would have to be a major earthquake style event... The save-function-frustration got me at times in the past, but with my current arrangement I am quite happy. That is: I simply close the tiddler (which will save the file - looking at the timestamp) and then "command-s(ave)" the file according to the "tower of Hanoi" sequence. That works good enough for me. I am used to a lot more clicking in the past, so over all, my situation has effectively improved. I will have no chance of learning any degree of coding in the foreseeable future and all comments I read about this over time seem to indicated that it's a complex issue to get to work. Your encouragement is appreciated.
