I'd like to run a TW5 on TiddlySpot, with backups to the local disk, with auto-save enabled.

Motivation: I need to share the TW between my work and my personal laptop, and TiddlySpot enables that.  I'd like an up-to-the-minute backup on a machine I control, and local disk backup enables that.

Of course, I'll have to use either TiddlyFox or TiddlyDesktop, in order to save locally.

If I start with an off-the-shelf TW5 and save it to TiddlySpot, what would I need to do in order to make those backups happen locally?

Hi Kevin,

If you open your TW from tiddlyspot, -> edit -> save back ... You'd need to modify the Save button, in a way, that it also downloads a TW at the same time.
I'd configure FireFox, or any other browser, that it should "always ask" if a new file is downloaded. ... So you can control the download process.

At the moment, only one "saver" is active at a given time.
