Subject: Re: <filename> changed on disk; really edit the buffer?

Message-ID: <18244.10942.933776.973734@tower.localdomain> (raw)

What did you think of the auto-save-hooks idea? In GNU Emacs
21.4.1 there is just
auto-save-hook's value is nil
Documentation:
Normal hook run just before auto-saving.
Another possible advantage of auto-saving into the file is that
it simplifies using session-recover if something does go wrong.
I have one file that always shows up with an auto-save file and
what I always wind up doing is a compare with the original to
check that I really want to do the replace, which I always do.
Just struck me that I maybe I should set this file to save into
itself. Unfortunately, it's a largish .gz, that takes a while to
save, but I might decide to stop being a bit miser, and just
use a normal file.
I'd like to do some work on this stuff, and some of the other TO
DO's but unfortunately my personal life doesn't leave me with
enough time.
