Configuring file saving and backup settings
Use the Save section of the Preferences dialog box to configure settings related to saving and backup up files.
Default file extension
Specifies the file name extension that will be used by default when you save a new document without typing a file name extension. You can set this to “.htm” or “.html”. Since both extensions are recognized as HTML documents by virtually all computers and Web browsers, the extension you choose is a matter of personal preference.
Make backups
If this check box is selected, whenever you resave a document, Namo WebEditor will rename the old version with a “.bak” file name extension instead of simply overwriting it with the new version. Thus, you can “undo” the saved changes in the latest version of a document by changing the backup file’s extension to “.html” and opening it.
Autosave interval
If this check box is selected, Namo WebEditor will automatically save all open, modified documents at regular intervals of the specified length. Note that Namo WebEditor does not autosave to the original file but rather to a copy with a “.asv” file name extension in the same folder. If your computer crashes or Namo WebEditor unexpectedly quits for any reason while you have modified documents open, you may be able to recover some or all of your lost work by changing the autosave file’s “.asv” extension to “.html” and opening it.
Save Smart ClipArt, equation, and chart images in
Specifies the path of the folder in which Namo WebEditor will save the bitmapped images it generates from Smart ClipArt images, charts, and equations. The default path, “images”, means that these bitmapped images will be saved in an “images” subfolder of the document’s folder. If you want, you can specify a different path relative to the document’s folder, such as “../bitmaps”. The new path will be used the next time you save a document that contains Smart ClipArt, charts, or equations.
