Package: nanoblogger
Version: 3.3-4
Severity: normal

The following command sequence will cause a blank entry to appear.

----
nb -a -b $BLOGDIR
# configure if it's a new blog
nb -a -b $BLOGDIR # to add a new entry if the blog's new
# your editor's "quit without writing" command, like vi's ZQ
----

I have repeated this using nano, various *vi*, and mousepad. By the time
this reaches BTS, an example should be visible at [1].

I'm developing a patch for it, but I'm not sure if it will cause
breakage yet. The patch would ideally compare the saved file to the
template, and reject the entry if they're the same.
