Summary: Save Interactions History Overwrites w/o Prompt

Initial Comment:
Story:

A user saves their current interactions history to a file on their desktop named "history.hist".  A few days later, they do the same thing.  Because their desktop is cluttered with files, they don't notice that there is already a file with that same name, so they reuse it.

DrJava should alert them that a file with the same name already exists, and ask if the user really wants to overwrite it.  Currently, DrJava silently overwrites the file without a warning or a way to avert disaster.
