The lack of extension in the "Save As" dialog box had me playing with some preferences in Settings > Preferences > MISC. I added the extension .txt and txt in two different tests and it didn't make a difference on the Save As option. But what it DID do is to fook up my ability to open txt files altogether. I removed the extension and it worked. Not sure what the Session File Ext is used for. Thoughts?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
The save as uses predefined extensions, as defined in langs.xml (you can alter them and change order, but adding a new language is not possible).
The session ext is used to open session files. Normally Notepad++ opens every file for editing, but if oyu specify the session ext any such file will be interpreted as a session.

Yeah, it's used to recognize session files!!!
