In Lion, I am convinced that that sort of thing has to do with this whole
"new document model" in how the documents are handled in real time. I have no
technical data to prove this, but I'd be willing to bet that it does. I know
that's not a help to you, though. I would try restarting Text Edit and
attempting to recreate the file. If you had work done, copy it to the
clipboard first.
