However, if I'm taking the minutes of an hour-and-a-half-long meeting in a corner of the building where the wifi is a bit flakey, my 'C-x C-s' reflex kicks in. However, as the text is only written to the text box, it won't help me if the connection goes down just as I try to save within the browser. It would be nice if there were some way to attach a file to a file-less buffer, just in case. Loris -- This signature is currently under construction.
