What the ???

Sorry if this is in the wrong place.


I worked on a project for almost an hour, got a lot done. Went to upload a sound file, and it brought up something saying "VIM Error." Then it closed scratch. You better believe I'm ticked. All that work, down the drain. And often, I don't have the spirit to do it again for a while. What does this mean, and is there any way to regain what was lost without having to do it all again?!

Re: What the ???

I said * as the title. Maybe that was censored? I don't believe that was the question though.

Re: What the ???

It means the program crashed on you. The sound file was probably too big to handle. I guess my best advice would be to save often; sorry bout your lost work bud

Re: What the ???

Thanks for the first decent answer. And yeah, probably should've saved. Thing is, went back and put up the same music, and it worked. Hmmmm....? >.<
