Autosave

jorgeramosdealm

Is there some kind of autosave for scripts and tables? I could not find it and after losing lines of code I wrote the following

 

 

mypath =
"$sample_data/";
scr = Window( "script.jsl" );
scrr = scr[Script Box( 1 )] << get text;
Save Text File(
  mypath || (scr << Get window title ; ),
  scrr
);
aus = Window( "Autosave" );
saus = aus[Script Box( 1 )];
Delete Symbols( scr, scrr, aus );
Schedule( 360, saus << run() );

Re: Autosave

See Help > Help. Search for "autosave". Found:

 

Consider setting the Autosave Timeout value in the General preferences to automatically save data tables at the specified number of minutes. This autosave value also applies to journals, scripts, projects, and reports.

Re: Autosave

Where does it save it? I have it set, but have just lost an hours work. I am so out of the habit of saving anything due to generally working off a cloud now

For Scripts I love the option "Autosave before run".

If you store the scripts in a Cloud folder, you get an automatic versioning -  so no issue to go back in time.
