Bug report - Command window

[ScottMattes]

I just tried saying the contents of a Command window, with File / Save As, and while a file was created it had nothing in it.

Is this reproducible? If so, how?

I just open a new command window, type and execute a query (select 'adsf' from dual) and do Alt-F, A and give it a name. Windows Explorer shows that the file exists, but has a size of 0k and opening it in notepad show nothing.

Works fine for me. Did you type this command in the "Editor" tab page? This is the script that is actually saved. The comannds executed on the prompt are not saved.

No, I didn't. I have yet to figure out what those tabs are good for, at least the editor tab (how do you get what is in it to the other tab).

if you enter something in the editor tab of the command window, play with it until its right, blah blah, then press F8. if the code you have written ends with a /, it will run, otherwise you will get a line number ( one more than the number of lines in the editor ), type a / and bobs yer auntie, it executes.

That is 'intuitively obvious, once you know it'!

Thank you, now that window is much more useful.
