If you have typed something in the English or thamizh area, you will be asked - "Sure you have saved the file with the recent modifications?".

you have not saved but yet want to discard the changes made in the current file and want to open a new unnamed file,

If the English and thamizh text areas are empty, 'Open dialog box' pops up for you to open an existing file. If you have typed something in the English or thamizh area, you will be asked - "Sure you have saved the file with the recent modifications?".

Just the same as ‘New’ menu item. But still this ‘Close’ menu item (from version 1.5 onwards) has been provided for the sake of users who are used to ‘Close’ menu item of MS-Word.

The file is always saved in rich text file (.rtf) format which is readable not only by MS-Word but by many similar editors worldwide, across platforms. Note that when you opt for 'non- transparent transliteration'(NTT), only one file will be created. When you do 'transparent transliteration'(TT), three files will be created.

For ex: If you give file name as 'test1' while saving, 'test1.rtf' will be the only file created during NTT. But, 'test1.rtf', test1`e`.rtf and test1`eb`.rtf - 3 files will be created during TT. Note that test1.rtf is your main Tamil file. test1`e`.rtf is the file holding your English text. test1`eb`.rtf is a support file. Dont delete the last two files (`e` and `eb` suffixed) mistakenly.

Note: We suggest the user to have a separate directory to hold the files generated with Azhagi and avoid saving them along with his/her other files. However, this is only a suggestion and as such, the user can save the Azhagi files in any directory of his choice.
