Saving a Document.
Changes to a document are saved automatically when you finish editing it and return to the
KeyWord menu or Main Menu, or when switching to another document with the command
CONTROL with Z. However, it is good practice to save a document regularly while you are editing
it, especially if you are editing the document for a long period of time. For example, you might
delete a significant passage by accident. You can recover by quitting without saving, as described in
7.14 Quitting a Document, and then opening the document again. This puts you back to the last
version that you saved.
