➽A Hack to Get Back “Save As”

A common workflow for me was to open a previously saved document and use it as my template for a new document. I would make changes to it and then save it a as a new document. To Save As meant you took the document you were working on and saved it as a new document in its current state while discarding those changes from the original and leaving that original document as it was. I used Save As all the time.

But in Lion, the ability to Save As is gone. Sadly, Command+Shift+S gets you nothing.

And so, by harnessing the power of Keyboard Maestro, I set up Command+Shift+S as a “Save As Hack”.
