Hey, I just had an alias up, which I found using view>find from the toolbar
I edited the alias script
I then clicked save
I then executed the alias from the command line, and it did not execute the changes I had made, it executed the script as it was prior to me editing it. It's like the save button didn't work even though after i clicked it, it greyed out.
If I click on another alias then on the one I edited (just selecting it) then execute it from the command line, it works...

I could not reproduce this. Here are the steps that I used in a blank session:

1) Run CMUD and close the Session Window
2) Type
#ALIAS a {#show test}
#ALIAS b {#show hello}
3) Open the Settings Editor (Ctrl-G)
4) Click on the "b" setting in the tree view to select it
5) Select View/Find from the menu
6) Enter "a" into the Search box (without the quotes) and click the search button
7) Edit the script for the "a" trigger and change "test" to "tester"
8) Click the Save Changes button
9) In the command line, type "a"
->It property shows the "tester" string.

So it looks like it is changing just fine here. Try this exact procedure and see if it works on your system.

I just did the same procedure you did, and it worked. I also went back and updated the same alias I was having problems with yesterday, and it worked correctly. I'll keep an eye on it, and try to further isolate the problem.

Hmm I still havn't pinned it down, however I just had something very similar happen again.
I have an alias called "cc"
