I tried another text editor and it had the option of turning on
Local Revision History (saved locally) for each file. This is a
super useful feature since I have to save each iteration of a
file I work on as
file1.ext
file2.ext
file3.ext
...
to keep history, or worse, I have to turn in each revision into
the CVS repository (or svn, whichever)
Committing each revision in takes time and it's not an
Textpad-intrinsic operation. (you have to go outside of
Textpad or create a Textpad tool)

It would be nice if I could turn on a flag for each file to save
the file revision history each time I save/commit. This way, I could
backtrack/rollback automatically if I went down the wrong path.

Alternately, I suppose I could use svn locally but again, I will
have to go through a series of steps taking my focus away from
text editing and worrying about check-ins and check-outs.
