Braille WaveOperation of the Braille SystemHandyTechElektronikGmbHPage 59When a file is closed and saved, all marks set for that file as well as the current cursorposition will be remembered. If a file is then transferred to a PC, edited on the PC, andthen retransmitted to the Braille System, the marks and current cursor position are nolonger valid. In addition to the marks and the cursor position, the Braille System also notesthe file's current size while saving it. When the file is opened again, the Braille Systemchecks the size, to see if it is the same as that recorded at the last save. If it is, the marksand the cursor position will be restored. If the current size deviates from the size notedbefore, the Editor assumes that the file has been modified on the PC in the meantime, orthat it is dealing with a file of the same name, but different contents. In this case, thecursor will be positioned at the beginning of the file upon opening it, and the bookmarksassociated with this file will be discarded.5.2.19 Closing a File and Quitting the Editor (SPC+1 5 = Chord e)Use [SPC+1 5] (Chord e) to save and then close the current file.If the file was modified, the Editor will ask: 'Save changes (Y/N)?'
