creating empty file

[Dr. Mirko Luedde]

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
 not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.

In GNU Emacs 20.7.1 (i386-*-windows95.1212)
 of Tue Jun 13 2000 on buffy
configured using `configure NT'

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

1) Let's visit a new buffer via "C-x f myfile".  Don't type anything
into the buffer. Instead, immediately save the file via "C-x s".  Then
no file will be created in the filesystem.

2) Let's visit a new buffer via "C-x f myfile".  Type something and
then erase it completely such that the buffer does not contain
anything at all. Then save the file via "C-x s". Then an empty file
"myfile" will be created in the filesystem.

The state of the filesystem should be the same regardless of whether
we performed the actions described in 1) or those described in 2).
The state of the filesystem should depend only on the buffer's state
when doing "C-x s", not on the buffer's history.

Cheers, Mirko.
