Occasionally I'll leave the app after writing something, come back, and see a blank editor. For some reason, the draft.txt is getting automatically cleared out sometimes.

O.K., maybe this is something I can fix. It'll be difficult to figure out the cause, but it appears to be a problem with the save routine rather than the read routine.

So while I can't figure out why it wants to write nothing out to the file, maybe I can guard against that happening.

And now I think I've fixed this. Hard to know for sure, but I gave the bug a long time to reoccur in my testing.

I don't know what was causing it but it appears I can check if the bug's about to happen and stop it from taking affect.

Excellent -- yeah, from my testing it seemed like the write was the problem (the draft file was blank on disk after closing the app). I'll pull in the changes and test here too.
