If I put a retain on the panel, the error stops, but isn't it now leaking?

No.  You took ownership of the NSSavePanel when you created it by
using a convenience constructor.  You must retain it, and release it
when you're done with it.


Except that the NSSavePanel docs state:

"An NSSavePanel object is a singleton: when you request a Save panel, NSSavePanel tries to reuse an existing Save panel rather than create a new one"

I don't usually retain it and have never seen this crash... but I also see it says TRIES to... so maybe it creates new instances sometimes depending on the parameters. It would be good to have a bit more certainty in the docs on this one - is it a singleton or not, and if not, under what circumstances exactly is that?

cheers, Graham
