      Description

      While testing IGBF-1092 I noticed that the Save As... feature is not useable at all on Windows. This is because the filename gets appended with additional text causing the file name to be invalid. This is also happening on Mac, but on Mac the filename is not invalid, but the extra text still gets appended.

      For example, if you try to save a graph file as a bedgraph named "test.bedgraph", IGB will actually save the file as "test.bedgraph.*.bedgraph".

      To reproduce:

      1) Select Arabidopsis thaliana genome - go to start screen and click the Arabidopsis image

      2) Choose Data Access > RNA-Seq > Loraine Lab > Mixed Cold > SM > Graph

      3) Select a graph, zoom in on a region

      4) Click Load Data to load some data

      5) Right-click or CNTRL-click track label and select Save As...

      6) Save a file with the name "test.bedgraph"

      Observe: On Mac = the file actually gets saved as test.bedgraph..bedgraph
      On Windows = the file will not be saved at all and there is an exception in the console.
