Re: [Ebib-users] new feature?

[Piter_ <x....@gm...>]

Hi Joost.
I have tried the function below and it does make a filename from the
key. But I have a problem here. The changes are not saved. Ebib seems
to not notice edition of the "file" field. It does not propose to save
the database and if I try "s" command, it also does not help.
Is anything can be done with it?
Thanks.
Petro.
