I have TextEdit default to plain text files. I also have "Add .txt extension to plain text files" unchecked in the "Preferences" in the "Open and Save" section.
If I perform these steps:
- Create new document
- Write some text
- Click on title bar to set the filename and save it
- Type
foobar.md
in the "Name" box - Hit "Enter"
The result is that the file is actually named foobar.md.txt
.
How can I get TextEdit to actually not add .txt
to file names? And what is the point of that box in "Preferences" if it doesn't actually do anything?
