Save Backup and autosave for Windows IDE.

[Bugala]

Currently, when i want to make a backup while making hollywood code with Windows IDE, i go to save as, click on backup copys name, then click save as again and click the original name (so that future clicks to "save" would save to main file instead of backup), but it would be nice to have a button that would automatically make the backup with a click of a button.

That if i am making "file.hws" then clicking that "save backup" would create or overwrite a file (if already exists) called "file(copy).hws".

Its a small thing, but it would be nice.

Also, autosave with option to decide the autosave time length between saves, and number of saves to keep copies of, would be nice.

As example, could chooce to autosave every 30 minutes, and have for example 10 backups, meaning that first autosave would go to backup1file, second to backup2file, etc. By otherwords, when new backup would be done with this setting, it would mean that new autosave would be saved on top of the autosave made 5 hours ago.

Hmm.
Most times, I have a Drawer-Icon of my actual projects on my desktop. If I wnat a backup, I simply select them Use Copy from Workbench-Menu and its done... Should be similar on windows or anywhere alse!?

Thanks, that is actually a good idea.

I can copy the file or directory to windows desktop, and then from there make copy the same way i think.

Still not as handy as pushing a button or autosave, but better than the current way i am doing i think. Have to try it.
