Subject: Protecting buffers which aren't visiting files
Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2010 13:01:47 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1287921707.15997.1401654367@webmail.messagingengine.com> (raw)

I use a lot of scratch buffers (which don't visit files), and I've lost
a lot of work due to accidentally quitting Emacs or killing those
buffers, because Emacs doesn't ask for confirmation. Is there a way of
configuring Emacs to treat buffers which don't visit files the same way
as file-visiting buffers, for this situation?

Thanks.
