When you choose Duplicate on an edited file, you're given the option to Duplicate and Revert the original file. Handy.

- X-Istence 14y agoThat is not the case, at least not with TextEdit ... when you choose Duplicate you get two files with the same contents. You can then save the duplicate as you wish, and revert the old one back to when it was opened using File -> Revert -> Last Open.
- rsfinn 14y agoThat's how it worked in Lion, but Mountain Lion behaves differently -- you get the duplicate with its file name selected, so you can rename it, but the original stays modified unless you think to immediately pick "Revert to last saved version". I actually liked the Lion behavior better. (Now I wish I'd had the chance to try out the Mountain Lion beta before release, so I could have filed a bug for this.) That's what we get for everyone complaining about the lack of "Save As"...
