No, I didn't lose a big project or anything. but I've noticed severl people have lost projects due to not saving, accidentally overwriting stuff, hard drive failure, etc.

so this is just a reminder, make a backup of your entire projects folder right now.

No, not after you add that new little feature that will just take a second. do it now.

for you own safety

Hmm... Does anyone know how antivirus programs detect if a file has been opened? That could be usefull for making a program that automaticaly makes a backup whenever you save. Unless that program already exists...

Can I see a demo now? [edit]Disregard, I saw the demo.

well if you save-all frequently you will always have the dbp bak file but backing up to a different physical disk is always a good idea.

I save all my codes in a folder as a .txt file and then I put the code in a floppy.
