- The <span class="guimenuitem">Save a Copy</span> command does the same thing
- as the <span class="guimenuitem">Save</span> command, but with one important
- difference. It always asks for a file name and saves the image into the
- specified file, but it does not change the name of the active image
- or mark it as “<span class="quote">clean</span>”. As a result, if you try to delete
- the image, or exit from <acronym class="acronym">GIMP</acronym>, you are
- informed that the image is “<span class="quote">dirty</span>” and given an opportunity
- to save it.
- </p>
- <p>
- This command is useful when you want to save a copy of your image in
- its current state, but continue to work with the original file without
- interruption.
