RE: RE: Auto-Save On WDSCI

Hi Bruce,

        Yeah, I Agree pretty much - It took some getting used to it to reach the
speed I had on SEU - my hands know how to do SEU.  I have been trying to
ingrain the habit (I use alt-FS) of saving periodically.  I just haven't
quite gotten there yet.

        V5.1.2 Build:20040506_1735  I thought I had updated it as far as it 
would
go but I just looked and there was a new 007 update which I downloaded and
installed.  Sitting on Windows, it is never going to be particularly stable.
I just need to cool off and drum the lesson in about saving regularly.

Thanks

        Is there a way to set up an Auto-Save on WDSCI?  I know it was
my own fault
for not saving - busy day - lots of interruptions - WHOLE DAY's Work
gone in
an eye blink.  Painful lesson.  A regular auto-save would help but I
can't
find anyway to engage...

I, too, would like an auto-save feature.  But I'm not ready to throw the
baby out with the bath water.

I frequently save.  The quickest way that I have found to do a save is
ctrl-S.  Typically I do this after ever 5-20 lines changed.  I have not
had WDSc crash as often as what it sounds like you have.

What version are you on?  I have found that the latest version (5.1.2.4)
is the most stable yet.  It is also the most feature-rich.  I'm
addicted...although I use SEU for simple things, as soon as I get past
about a 5-line change, I switch to WDSc.  Even with all of its quirks,
it's leap years past SEU.  (Now, PDM...that's another story...)

Hope this helps,
