One more thing. In TextEdit in 10.9.5, it also places the text " — Edited" next to the document title in the title bar. I guess enough people miss that subtle dark dot.

I got that part but how does it change the appearance of the window itself (circles)?

Assuming a window equates to a loaded representation of a file, the dirty bit would mean, "I am different than the version on disk". It's to indicate that there are changes made that are not saved to disk.

pardon my ignorance but what is the 'dirty flag' for a window? Is this universal on OS X document windows? I'll be looking more closely at those dots when I get to work today.

Is there a straightforward way in AS to obtain a pointer to a non-scriptable application's frontmost window and to set its "dirty" flag (so the dot appears in the close button)? I suspect this might be one for Shane but I'll happily accept help from anyone!
