Recently I used 'v' in less (Atari version 1) to call the editor (uEmacs 3.9e) and change a file. In ue I made the changes and left. But surprisingly there were no changes visible in less. Why ?! A look in the directory gave an explanation. The file existed twice with the same name. Therefore less reads the first, ue edited the second. I make GEMDOS responsible for this because of it's faulty file and device descriptor handling while pexecing. Does anybody have concrete explanations/workarounds ?
