New features

  • Use after-focus-change-function instead of the obsolete focus-out-hook for
    detecting frame focus loss. Controlled by the new super-save-when-focus-lost
    option (enabled by default).
  • Add a default predicate that checks verify-visited-file-modtime to avoid
    overwriting files modified outside Emacs.
  • Add a default predicate that checks the parent directory exists before saving,
    to prevent errors when a file's directory has been removed.
  • Wrap predicate evaluation in condition-case so a broken predicate logs a
    warning instead of disabling all auto-saving.
  • Add support for saving org-src edit buffers (via org-edit-src-save) and
    edit-indirect buffers (via edit-indirect--commit). Controlled by
    super-save-handle-org-src and super-save-handle-edit-indirect (both
    enabled by default).
  • Use window-buffer-change-functions and window-selection-change-functions to
    detect buffer and window switches. Controlled by the new
    super-save-when-buffer-switched option (enabled by default). This catches all
    buffer switches regardless of how they happen, unlike super-save-triggers.

Bug fixes

  • Fix redundant saves in super-save-focus-change-handler — previously it called
    super-save-command once per unfocused frame instead of once.

Changes

  • Require Emacs 27.1.
  • Default super-save-triggers to nil, since super-save-when-buffer-switched
    now covers all buffer switches via window-system hooks.
  • Default super-save-hook-triggers to nil, since super-save-when-focus-lost
    and super-save-when-buffer-switched cover the common triggers.

New features

  • Make super-save checks customizable via super-save-predicates.
  • Introduce defcustom super-save-max-buffer-size as a way to avoid auto-saving
    big files.
  • Introduce defcustom super-save-exclude (a list of regular expression) as a
    way to filter out certain buffer names from being auto-saved.
  • #43: Introduce super-save-silent
    to avoid printing messages in the *Messages* buffer or in the echo area.
  • #43: Introduce
    super-save-delete-trailing-whitespace which defaults to nil and accepts
    t to run delete-trailing-whitespace before saving the buffer. This
    variable accepts only the symbol except-current-line to delete trailing
    white spaces from all lines except the current one. This can be useful when we
    are in the middle of writing some thing and we add a space at the end, in this
    case, we more likely need the space to stay there instead of deleting it.
  • #44 & #20: Introduce
    super-save-all-buffers to save all modified buffers instead of only the
    current one.

Changes

  • Require Emacs 25.
