Saving of the log fails

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Press Menu -> Save
2. The message about file creation appears.
3. The log record:
java.io.IOException: Parent directory of file is not writable: /sdcard/alogcat
appears.
4. No file is created.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The file should be created. No error messages in logs should appear.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
aLogcat v.1.5.1 on Android 2.1 on HTC Hero.

Please provide any additional information below.
I suppose the AndroidManifest.xml contains some wrong information:

1. You changed the minSdkVersion from 3 to 4 in the r18.
The correct tag should be:
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" android:targetSdkVersion="4"/>

2. Since SDK version 4 you should add a permission to write to SD card. Please 
add:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>

thanks for the feedback. save to SD should be fixed, and i took your suggestion 
on the SDK version settings.

I confirm the fix for the application downloaded from Market.
But I don't see the changes in the source code here ;)
