Yes. Go to http://TiddlyTools.com/timer.html, and import the TiddlyTools/Time/AutoSaver tiddler (and the required supporting tiddlers). Note that the AutoSaver is NOT *enabled* when you first install it. Use the "gear" icon from the Sidebar controls to configure the "countdown interval" the default is 1 hour. Then press the start button to activate the countdown. If you save your file with the AutoSaver active, it will remain active when you reload the file. Here's the documentation from TiddlyTools/timer.html: TiddlyTools/Time/AutoSaver <http://tiddlytools.com/timer.html#TiddlyTools%2FTime%2FAutoSaver> Displays a countdown timer in the SideBar that triggers a periodic "file save" action. Requires: TiddlyTools/Time/CountDown <http://tiddlytools.com/timer.html#TiddlyTools%2FTime%2FCountDown>, TiddlyTools/Time/Ticker <http://tiddlytools.com/timer.html#TiddlyTools%2FTime%2FTicker>, TiddlyTools/Time/action-timeout.js <http://tiddlytools.com/timer.html#TiddlyTools%2FTime%2Faction-timeout.js> Optional: TiddlyTools/Time/Setup <http://tiddlytools.com/timer.html#TiddlyTools%2FTime%2FSetup>, $:/config/TiddlyTools/Time <http://tiddlytools.com/timer.html#%24%3A%2Fconfig%2FTiddlyTools%2FTime> - The start button begins the countdown. The input fields automatically update to show the time remaining. - The pause button stops the countdown. Press resume to continue the countdown. - While paused, you can change the time remaining in the *current* countdown. Press start to apply the changes and continue the countdown. - The stop button stops the countdown and resets the time to use the configured AutoSaver interval. - When the countdown reaches zero, a "save file" action is triggered. The specific behavior depends upon which saver method you are using. - You will be asked to confirm before the file is saved. You can change this option in the settings. - When the file has been saved, a message will appear below the AutoSaver. You can clear this message by clicking on it. - Press to change the AutoSaver interval and/or the "confirm before saving" option. - Press apply to use the new AutoSaver interval. Press reset to restore "factory settings" (1 hour) - You can re-arrange the placement of the AutoSaver by using drag-and-drop in this tag list: $:/tags/SideBarSegment enjoy, -e -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
