Like most developers, I work on 5+ projects at a time. The Undo/Redo buffer is critical to trace back your steps on something you may have worked on 10 months ago.
Can you please please please implement a feature that dumps the buffer to a file with some simple restore function?

I've been using Textpad for over a decade now for all my development. If Helios or any 3rd party can add a plug-in like this, I'd be forever grateful!

Thanks.

Tracking changes over months is what source code control systems (SVN, CVS, ...) are for.

CVS does not track the Edit buffer.

I use Undo/Redo to trace the sequence of my file changes…As unpractical as it sounds, it allows me (without much notice) to drop one project and switch to another. When I come back to it months later, Undo/Redo traces my steps back exactly how the file was altered.
The problem with my environment is that occasionally I do have to restart

I know I could use a Linux editor for this type of development but I prefer textpad.

I think what MudGuard is saying is to use the proper tool for the job. You should be relying on your CM system to reorient you to changes in a project from 10 months ago, not something a volatile as your editors undo buffer.

I think you guys are missing my point.

I use CVS for checking files in routinely...And I'm very capable of running diffs between revisions.

Undo/Redo serves completely different purpose for me than simply making sure my changes don't get lost.

Thanks for your input though.
