Dirty Editor? Is that C# Lingo?

Jay mentioned that he had a "dirty editor" when the little dot appeared at the top of his text editor when he saved his changes. Is a "dirty editor" a term for unsaved changes in code in C#/other programming languages, or is this just something cute that Jay came up with?

It's probably a bit more widely used than just by Jay, but it's certainly not universal C# terminology. :wink:

Ha! Will do, good to know. I certainly had never heard of that phrase before.
