transpose its last two lines and it breaks on the last one (setting the text)

That makes “sense” within the confines of how “autosave” and ‘versions’  works. When you transpose them, you’re editing the unnamed, unsaved document before giving it a name or saving it, then changing the name out from underneath it in the last line. It’s essentially orphaned. I know that doesn’t make sense within a traditional model of untitled doc and unsaved doc, but it’s been this peculiar way since Lion introduced the whole concept of autosave (the horrible ‘duplicate’ and ‘export’ commands the came along with it).

Incidentally, when (either way round), the ‘set name to ….” command is issued, it changes the window title, but it doesn’t fill the name in the autosave popup box (if you look at it, it’s still blank). I’m guessing that autosave is trying to read the string from that field rather than the window name. Finding it blank, it chokes. 

This is all report-worthy bugginess to my mind.


Best


Phil
