Best way to create and save new advantage

Since I got bit on saving templates, what is the best way to create and save new advantage? Should I not use the New Advantage wizard?

New Advantage is fine to use, though it really doesn't offer too much in the way of a wizard. It basically just offers Name, Extension, and cost. You can then save the New Advantages to a data file using the Edit -> Full Edit -> Save to Data File button.

If you're going to be doing a lot of advantages (or other traits) it's probably better for you to begin to learn the data file structure so you can write them directly, as this will offer a lot more flexibility in what the traits can do.
