<em>Technical Note:</em> When the survex file is saved, it is being saved to the permanent store on the expo file
server. It is also being automatically registered in the version control system [or will be, if Philip & Wookey get
their act together March 2022]. So don't worry about losing data. A super-nerd can always recover it (not a job for an ordinary nerd though).

<p>You may see a number of error messages below the editing window: <em>read them and understand them</em>. If you
don't understand them, <em>ask someone</em>.
<p>So using the online system gives you a very, very easy way of syntax-checking your data entry and
typing up your notes.
