Give me my txt!
I just had a weird experience with Camino today. I was casually checking out The Meaning Of Liff and then decided to save the page source, so that I can do something with all the entries later. Sure I could copy and paste the text, but I decide to instead opt for the “save as…” option. Since I wanted to process the text at the end of the day, I tried giving the file the extension txt. Alas, Camino had a different opinion:
Now, why on earth wouldn’t Camino let me save the file with whatever extension I feel like? It is after all my funeral. It seems Safari demonstrates the same kind of behavior. Is this a general feature of Save Panels I was not aware of?
While we are at it, Camino does have an extremely cool feature I had not realized before: Tell it to save the page as Plain Text, and (yes, you guessed it) it will save it as Markdown! Or at least Markdown-like. +1 for Camino over Safari.
