To all
One of the things that I have done is remember to do a "Save As.." rather
than a "Save".
If you have an open document, and just close it, it saves "everything."
That is how you can "Open" the document and perform several "Undo's" on the
document.
There is a "Lot" of memory stuff saved in the files.
