;-( I'll highly suggest upgrading to 0.9.0 in another week when it comes out.
Much more stable and feature-ful.

If you have autosave enabled, then yes there is a file Untitled1.bak lying
around somewhere. If not, there might be a backup (we auto-save on crashes if we
can).

Sorry 'bout that. If you know what CVS is you might want to try a CVS build or a
nightly build (www.abisource.com/~sam/nightly/latest/). They're much better.
