No.
A simple save is easy to implement. But there are some cases which
makes it difficult in general:
- If it would trigger a normal "save all" and you have just created
some new files or are in the middle of a refactoring you will get
suddenly save and message dialogs. I personally would hate that
interruption.
- I often open a file, change something and save it as another
name. An autosave would play havoc here.
- It would be better if the autosave would save the changed files in a
separate location (e.g. .lazarus/autosave), which can then be
restored on next start. But that requires some more work.
Well, to my big relief, I discovered that Atom does this.
It saves files that were opened but never saved. Next time I opened the
project, even the unsaved files were there.
So I am all for this 'more work' :)
