TextEdit pet peeve: closing an empty window prompts the save dialog. Always. An empty TexEdit window with a non-dirty buffer should just disappear upon close.

TextEdit pet peeve: closing an empty window prompts the save dialog. Always.
An empty TexEdit window with a non-dirty buffer should just disappear upon close.
But I'm ready to learn otherwise from the HN commentariat.
- alain94040 11mo agoJust tried: open TextEdit, new document (creates an empty document). Close it, no save dialog.

- frizlab 11mo agoYup, same. Save dialog only happens if I have added some text (but will still happen if I remove the text I added, which I expected anyways).
- DavidPiper 11mo agoHappens for me too. I assume it's an iCloud thing (I vaguely remember the behaviour changing around the time I set up iCloud years ago), but I haven't ever bothered trying to figure out a way to turn it off...
