[John Plaxco <915683@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start aldo from the terminal
2. Choose option 3
3. Press enter without providing a filename

Expected result:

A warning message saying that no filename was provided. Return to the
main menu.

Actual result:

Segmentation fault, program crashes.

Additional information:

Same behavior when a file that doesn't exist is entered. Apparently the
filename isn't being checked before being passed to the underlying
library.
