Is there any way to have auto save option for .txt files in Fedora.
Means, if we write something, in some seconds (fixed, e.g., 10 secs)
that after which it automatically saves the name.txt files while
creating any new file in Fedora.
Despite auto-save features being in many programs, I tend to avoid it.
After many years of computing, I'm used to hitting a "save" hotkey every
few minutes, to keep what I've done safe. It also gives me a good undo,
if I've messed up. Auto-saving loses that advantage, it's saved your
mistakes (if you've made any), without an easy to way to undo them.
Anything from cat on keyboard, to trying a re-write of your document,
then deciding you preferred the prior version.
