New issue 342 by jeffwheeler: Opening file that doesn't exist fails
http://code.google.com/p/yi-editor/issues/detail?id=342
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch yi (in my case, with a vim config)
2. Try editing a file that doesn't exist (with my vim config, ":e asfd")
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Both Emacs and Vim handle this the same: open a buffer with that filename
associated with it, but don't write to it until the file is saved.
Right now, opening the file fails, since canonicalizePath fails.
I might have broken it in this commit, but I'm not sure how:
