tiddlyspot - automatic way to save to web?

[M)]

Thanks for checking this discussion out.

I've recently made the switch to tiddlyspot and just had one of those
moments when I didn't save before closing. This happened because I'm
used to other wikis performing the save and because I have used
autosave with TW. I'm imagining I'll get used to it though it would
be nice if I didn't have to be smart or proactive (because with three
kids, my mind is mush and the simplest things are forgotten).

My wish is one of two things.

1. a plugin will autosave to the web in the background. This might be
a silly request due to the length of time it takes to upload. If so,
I have a #2.

2. a plugin will autosave to my hard drive as long as autosave is
true. Thus if I forget to save to web, then I am still protected. As
long as the plugin knows where to save, such as my documents, then
this would be a good solution.

I've looked around and the closest thing I found was the
SaveFromWebPlugin, though it didn't fulfill my wish.

#1 above seems like a good idea though it might not work within
reason. #2 is a solution, but not as desirable. Can anyone offer a
solution?

BTW, another option would be to have a warning like what we get with a
file:// TW/ I've used SaveOnExitPlugin, but it doesn't work for
tiddlyspot.

You could give these a try:

HTH.

You should get an "unsaved changes" warning regardless of whether it's a
local or remote document.
