Bob,

"Save As..." does seem to use the wrong folder. (I think it is using the folder
of the most recently opened file.)  As far as I can tell, Alpha is using the
built-in saveAs command. As such, I'm not sure I can fix it, but I'll try to
take a stab at it sometime this week. (A crude workaround: click on the title
of the file you want to 'save as' and pull down one item to the enclosing
folder. This will give you an open file dialog in the correct folder. Cancel
the open. Now 'save as' will save in the same folder as the original file.)
