[Ardour-Users] Ardour 5 Saving project file for version 4 by creating a new project

[Paul Davis]

I just started Ardour 5.0.5. Created a new session. This is the contents of
the session folder after that:

paul at mobile[2411]>ls -l ~/joerg

drwxr-xr-x 2 paul paul  4096 Aug 15 07:14 dead

I don't see the file you're talking about.
