Saving Files and Exiting
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
QEdit provides several different ways to save files, discard files,
and exit the editor. A set of five basic commands provides assorted
combinations of saving, discarding, and exiting in order to suit
individual preferences.
We recommend selecting one or two methods with which you feel most
comfortable and using them consistently.
The table below summarizes these commands and their effects.
