Details:

Changing name to a function open in the editor using SaveAs, had the not so
brilliant idea of deleting the current file straight from the SaveAs dialog.
This produced an additional dialog warning me that the file open in the editor
was deleted, and asking whether I wanted to save it. Clicked on NO and this
closed all the dialogs and the file was gone from the editor. No trace of it
in the bin despite the fact that I used Del (not Shift+Del).

Hope this helps saving somebody else's work as I lost mine!

Cheers
