| This may be just because I'm running MUSHclient in wine, but I'm always getting 0 back from SaveNotepad. I ran /print(SaveNotepad ("challenge", "c:/Program Files/MUSHclient/challenge.txt", 0)) and got a 0, then catted it, rmed it, then saved it again. Still got a 0 returned, but the file was saved correctly. Then I updated the notepad a bit, and ran it again without erasing the file. It was overwritten... So I mucked about with the data again, then saved with /print(SaveNotepad ("challenge", "c:/Program Files/MUSHclient/challenge.txt", 1)) instead, got a 0 returned, and the file was overwritten.
My apologies if this made no sense, or I've gotten quite confused here. I've been up for far too long to make much sense. |

| I see what you mean. There are two problems here:
- The sense of the returned value was inadvertently reversed. Zero is meaning a good save. I will fix that in version 4.14 onwards to conform with the documentation.
- The "replaceexisting" flag didn't do what I thought it did, and the documentation is therefore wrong. I have amended the online version now, and the fixed help file will ship with version 4.14 onwards:
