Oops, sorry. I meant that it does not ask you for a filename to open
from or save to.
It uses the filesystem internally and translates document names to
full paths (and back) seamlessly. All documents are stored in your
home directory: ~/Documents/Text. We could add in a option to open
via the file chooser if you like.`
