Re: [Inkscape-devel] saving files

that
inkscape keeps prompting you for the file name to save as every time you save.
The problem appears to be that the first time a file is saved, the "pure SVG" output module is being used instead of the "SVG with extensions" module (meaning no inkscape: or sodipodi: attributes are saved).
I'm not sure why this is yet... it's causing all sorts of problems.
Ted, any insights?

Yeah, I figured this out after my last post. Perhaps, even in "pure SVG" mode we could still store some important attributes, like docname and modified. Do we really need docbase? Couldn't it be determined from docname? docname always seems to have the complete path for me.
I'm a big fan of having minimal, clean svg.
Cheers, Rob.

Well, in the case of docbase specifically I suspect we should really be using the XML Base recommendation instead.
There are a lot of design decisions inherited from Sodipodi that we really need to revist at some point ... I honestly haven't gotten around to thinking about that area of things yet.
