Which I consider the only real solution.  From many tutorials, one gets the
impression that the purely interactive way is the method of choice, followed
by save(). This probably is the reason why it is so difficult to ask for
self-contained examples.

Maybe we should have some warning displayed in the opening screen: "Are you
sure you have a separate editor window open?"
