Well, almost, Matt.  I know you consider this to be a feature, but
since DME doesn't set the "modified" flag when one changes a line
and does not move the cursor to a different line, a conditional
save (based on the modify state) doesn't "get you what you see".
This also seems to happen on some block move/copy operations.

The above is true for v1.25 and earlier ... I haven't gotten v1.27
down to the Amiga yet, as we (amdahl) were down the past week for a
major equipment move ... still don't have the dial-ups working yet.

P.S.  Thanks for the suggested "uufix" macro ... anyone want to share their
      most useful/interesting/obfuscated dme macros?  How about a contest
      (winner to get a ... I dunno, free copy of dme, maybe)?
