Bug Description
Hi I am fairly new to Ubuntu and this is my first bug report. I find this ubuntu forum very difficult to navigate and perhaps this bug is already known - I tried to search for this bug and cannot find one listed so I am opening this one.
Here is my problem :
Every time I open a text document and I want to type something in it, I can do so. But when I then decided to type something new into my file, I of course want to save the info , so I go "file -save". The file IS saved; but it also creates a second file in whatever folder I am in, and now I have two of them.
If I go into either of these two files, and type anything , and then hit "save" , I will end up with THREE files!
It is highly annoying and I keep having to delete the duplicate files. Can some one please tell me how to solve this problem, I think I am using release 7.1 of Gutsy Gibbon thank you ,Kev
