Aaron, once you work out the difference between Save and Save As, maybe you can Fritz the ACE exam too!

Or not.

You might try my "SaveVersion" script here (link to file about 10 lines from top of page). As usual, this will save time as long as you set up a keyboard shortcut.

When you Save it overwrites the file you’ve got open. If you Save As you get the option to name it something else “Save As…> New Design.indd”

If you’ve just started a new document you have no choice but to Save As as it needs a name.

I do wish that when you press Ctrl + s it did a version save and not overwrite the one you started with. Or the option to do a version save every 5 minutes it’s open or something.

No way is Fritz a Vulcan. Look at that grin. (Though I did notice his ears are strategically cropped out. So can’t discount that entirely.)

But I’m thinking a Betazoid (he was reading minds for the right answers — and look at those black irises) or maybe a Bynar.

Just checked with Wikipedia, yup, he’s a Bynar:

“The Bynars are a highly intelligent species who have become almost machine-like due to a constant connection with their homeworld Bynaus’s master computer.

“The Bynars are asexual beings roughly the size of regular Human adolescent. They have over-sized heads that accommodate large brains. The Bynar skin-tone is purplish in color. [Fritz must have used a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer on his pict --AM]

“The Bynars are an official member of the United Federation of Planets. Due to the Bynars’ total dependence on their master computer they have become so machine-like that their speech is essentially a form of binary code. Hive-like in nature, disconnecting a Bynar from the master computer or each other is near fatal. Due to this total interconnectivity, and their ability to speak in machine language, they are able to communicate at a rapid rate. [I have heard him speak at this rate, so can confirm. --AM] So fast in fact that they require the aid of data buffers to be built into their clothing. It should be noted that, not surprisingly, the Bynars are known throughout the Federation for their skill with computers.

“When a Bynar is born, a surgeon removes the infant’s parietal lobe and replaces it with a synaptic processor.”

Yep, case closed.

(All hail the Wikipedia page of every Star Trek race)

So, Fritz, how do you like your stay here on Earth so far? Will you have many strange tales to bring back to your home planet? Will you pity us mere Earthlings — at least a little?

Nevertheless: My Kompliments & Kongratulations! Your fellow Vulcans must be proud of you!

WOW! , and to think it was Fritz that tested me for my talent application at C-2 I think if I’d known he was such a genius, I would been more nervous! Well done.
