Well, I agree. Being vigilant about saving is just plain good computer
practice. However, given that logic can save, usually without a hiccup,
there is almost no reason I can think of that it shouldn't be implemented in
the program (at least as an option).
Having your hand glued to the apple key is a good habit, but a computer, in
this day and age, should be more than capable of freeing up your hand for
other tasks --especially for something as menial, rudimentary, and basic as
saving.
I too am really good about saving (one has to be). But I'm not ashamed to
admit that there have been more than a few times when an auto-save feature
would have gotten me out of a pinch.
So I'd like chime in with auto-save on my wishlist, echoing the two
assertions that (1), auto-save shouldn't overwrite your original document,
and (2), it should be something you could disable if you wanted to. Plenty
of other programs implement it that way.
As an anecdote, this isn't the first time this has come up. I remember, way
back, someone (was it f-erenc or per) claimed that logic HAD an auto-save
function...their pinkie and index finger? But it raises the question of why
this feature has consistently been so stubborn to appear. Is this some sort
of philosophical objection on the part of emapple, or perhaps something
about the code that we don't understand which makes it difficult to
implement? I wonder...
best, Nathan
