🚀 go-pugleaf

I can reproduce the following effect every time:

If JBuilder automatically closes the project upon exiting (menu item
"File:Exit"), the following is written to myProject.jpx:

  <node type="Archive" name="myProject">
    <property category="archiving" name="targetPath"
value="lib/myProject.jar" />

If I close the project manually using the menu item "File:Close
projects...", only the following is written to myProject.jpx file, so
it's clear that the path will be missing the next time I open the
project:

  <node type="Archive" name="myProject" />

Maybe it's just a quirky installation on my end. It's really not a huge
deal, but I thought if there is a known workaround, I'd give it a shot.
Thanks for your patience.
