question or suggestion - save drafts?

Yep, I used to do the Notepad method when I was using Notepad as my IDE. It took awhile before the QB64 IDE got so good that I switched back.

I couldn't venture a guess if it was a momentary network outage or some key combo that caused it. I have had a few such instances here, and usually, but not always, the post is preserved with a simple back button press, as you mentioned, but not always!

A final thought for all...

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER write your programs in the friggin' forum text input box!!! Ah, my QB64 graphics word processor is finally completed. Now just press "Post" and... Ah, Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Writing your programs in the forums editor sounds a little risky, lol. 

Did you really write a word processor that can post to the QB64PE forums? 
That would actually be pretty cool, LoL!
