Re: Editing a .JS file on the IFS

I "right-clicked" on the file and selected "Open With" then JavaScript Editor.

As far the "save-as" - it does point to the RemoteSystems temp files.

I've seen where a text file is edited with TextPad, since that's the associated one now - it edited the one in the workspace and did not push it back up - if I use the built-in RDi text editor, it DOES update the file in the IFS.

I have not looked for a way to make it work with external editors like the way this did - I'm pretty certain I missed something along the way.

Cheers

So I edited a javascript file in RDi by navigating to a directory on the IFS. I then saved it using a different file name. But it wasn't actually there... The file only existed in my RDi Workspace.

Is this by design?
