I am writing on a novel in Org Mode and I fear that at some point wide parts will be erased by me without noticing, therefore I want Emacs to automatically create backup files.
Google suggested different solutions for this issue which I am unfortunately not able to bring together (just started emacs half year ago, its hard to interpret the codes, and harder to write myself).
What I am trying to do:
example.org (backuping today)
- should be saved every x Hours or xxxx keystrokes
- Backups should therefore be named "example 17.6.15 11:35.org"
- In addition if possible: Delete all files but 1 of every day at the end of the week.
Is there maybe a Package with this features? (Is there another solution outside Emacs?)
I guess the following links looked promising:
