Unfortunately for me, I have not been able to come up with a dramatically better name for the action in my program than "Export". I have modified it to say "Export Text", but that feels like upgrading the description of Earth from "harmless" to "mostly harmless". It doesn't really make it as intuitively obvious as "compile" does. Of course, naming the action "compile" assumes your user is familiar with the name of the process for creating an object file.

Generally, if you're using the NSDocument classes, you'd use a Save as... that would then have the option of using a writing-only format.

Otherwise, how about "Save to..."

Please note that I *didn't* write that. I simply quoted it!

Please everyone take care who you attribute what to.
