Auto-Save #36

Closed knupel closed 10 years ago

knupel commented 10 years ago

Witht the recurent freezing problem, and I lost all the work because I don't save so often. Why not add an autosave in processing, not directly in the sketch folder but like the other software in autosave folder. And when we re-open processing, processing ask if we want open all the auto-save sketches ?

This sounds like a good idea. Should be helpful during the beta period. I'll get started on this one soon.

Okay, currently thinking of implementing an auto save timer that saves a copy of the sketch every 5 minutes to a temporary folder inside the sketch folder. When the user closes the sketch normally, this temp folder will be deleted. In case of a crash, this folder will persist. So when opening the sketch again, if temp folder exists, user will be prompted to restore the sketch if he wants.

Now implemented in v1.0.3b. Please try it out and let me know how it goes. https://github.com/processing/processing-experimental/releases/tag/1.0.3b

There's no more autosave now with PDEX in Processing 3 ?
