Windows editor suggestions - autosave
I can also suggest the following:
Notepad++ has an AutoSave plugin, a slew of other useful features, and a
Scintilla editor. If you use other languages, it is also extensible and
has almost no learning curve. NppToR is a background application that
allows you to pass lines or files straight from your editor to an R
console.
Notepad++: notepad-plus-plus.org
NppToR: sourceforge.net/projects/npptor/
I can also suggest Geany, another Scintilla-powered editor. In the plugins
list, Save Actions has a autosave feature. While Geany doesn't have a
native R interface in Windows (I wrote one for myself in AutoHotKey in
about 2 mins), it has a ton of other options and is cross-platform.

[image removed] [R] Windows editor suggestions - autosave Michael Conklin to: R-help 12/29/2010 11:35 AM Sent by: r-help-bounces at r-project.org I am looking for advice on an editor to use with R (windows) that has an autosave feature. I typically write scripts using the RGui (and tried TinnR yesterday) but I am having continuing problems with BSODs (non R related) and have in the past have had issues with R crashes and would really like a system that does not require me to remember to hit the save button on my script every 10 minutes so that I can avoid redoing everything.
