Can I suggest perhaps adding your configuration files - Geany's at a minimum - to a version control repository, whether using git, bazaar or any other modern system? Once you had that done you could also schedule an import of config files perhaps once a day. They'd only be stored locally but at least you could revert to any revision with a minimum of disk space being used. Another suggestion would be to keep important notes somewhere other then Geany but that doesn't solve the essential nature of the problem. // Russell _______________________________________________ Geany mailing list [email protected] https://lists.uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany
