[Shane Ross] "It pastes the content of the timeline in a TEXT window?"

No, it pastes the last block of text you copied to the clipboard. So let's say you were typing an email, forgot you were supposed to hit 'reply all,' copied your four line email to paste into the new message, and then 10 minutes later went to output a QT movie of your latest cut of "Zombie Village, Episode 3" You try to type the file name "ZV_ep3_v04rc" and when you press Shift+V for "V," the four lines from your previous email end up in the Save As name field. Kinda frustrating.

[Shane Ross] "I can now...reconnect. Or do you mean in some other instance?"

No - meant reconnect. That's good.

[Shane Ross] "Why the need for LONG names?"

"Cut4" doesn't really mean anything when you're working with 6 different editors on a 39 ep series. The filename may need to reflect, Ep name, number, version, editor, etc., like "ZV_ep03_BI_v103_FC_toNetwork.mov" I shouldn't have to call it "cut 3" and then rename it as an extra step. Or maybe I should...

Anyway. All in all, good improvements, and thanks Jeff for the reading material.
