[clug] Learning mc -> Can't save from nano

Thanks for the help, Scott:

That issue seems , seems to have been caused by my having opened the 
Midnight Commander from Ubuntu's Launcher.

Similarly, from my terminal, there was now no such ghost-snippet problem.

I tried the two, and prefer mcedit because I couldn't get nano to save 
changes. The latter editor wanted to save in:
  "/tmp/mc-<username>/fish01QVkatesting.txt".
The ending being my original file name in the phone's Documents directory.
But viewing from "mc", that latter test file--showed no change/update.
Then I looked in the "/tmp/mc-<username>/" directory--which was empty!
