Option to autosave when compiling

Sembazuru commented 10 years ago

I think this should be entirely optional. I like the fact that I can make a change to a sketch and if I don't like the result I can still revert back to a known good saved state. Autosave when compiling would break this. Thus I probably wouldn't turn this on. But, others might (probably) have a different workflow and having autosave would save them a click at every compile (or save their bacon and prevent them from loosing everything if the IDE or computer crashes during a compile).

I'd propose an extension to this for management of the hex file, but it is different enough in scope that I'll create a new issue for it.
