I know that you can set the interval to auto-save to the swap file but how do I automatically save to the named file itself every n seconds?
Yes, you can use 'CursorHold' autocommand for that. The following (untested) is probaly an easy starting point: au CursorHold * :up! au CursorHoldI * up! Normally, file does not become modified without keyboard interaction, right ? So you do not really need the periodic saving when there was no keys pressed.I think CursorHold/CursorHoldI will serve nicely here, without need for periodic repeating. Yakov
