Hi,
For a couple of months, I've been observing the following strange behavior in Byword:
I'm storing my documents to a folder that is backed by Dropbox. When saving a Markdown file with Cmd+S, I often get the following error:
The document “example.md” could not be saved. The file has been changed by another application.
This happens almost every time I have Dropbox enabled. In addition to this annoying message, my documents folder will contain lots of "conflicted copy" files, which I have to remove manually on a regular basis.
After doing some experiments, I start to believe that the problem must have to do with the way Byword is writing files to disk, which seems to confuse Dropbox syncing somehow.
Any help would be appreciated.

I think this may lie with Dropbox. The issue is also documented for iAWriter, the cause being that (sadly) the older Dropbox Sync API has been deprecated, which has broken a lot of workflows.
