Editors tend to ask you "really exit without saving?" and }it'd be nice if something similar happened when you hit "N" and have a }buffer full of SQL text. }I am not sure if it would work in this case, but sometimes I have been }able to get my "lost SQL" back by hitting control-Z, then looking though }the /tmp directory for anything owned by me (ls -l /tmp | grep }proberts). Sometimes there's a file there with a name like rsqa024433 }which contains my SQL. Here, here!!! Just my two pence, I agree!! A confirmation would be VERY nice. I've lost more than one script that way too. Larry Hector hectorl@vrinet.com
