[issue21152] Idle: timed autosave for shell (and maybe editor) window

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

I list below other IDLE issues containing 'autosave', so I don't have to look at each issue for relevance to this one again.

#21140  22 Idle: saving an OutputWindow should default to .txt (patch)
           (Has comment prompting this issue.  Otherwise not relevant.)
#23666  10 Add shell session logging option to IDLE
           (Related to this issue, partial duplicate)
#21937   6 IDLE interactive window doesn't display unsaved indicator
           (Actually, *...* indicates non-empty undo buffer.)
#19042   9 Idle: add option to autosave 'Untitled' edit window
           (On F5, same as for titled edit window. See 1326830.)
#4765   20 IDLE fails to "Delete Custom Key Set" properly (patch)
           ('autosave' in quoted .idlerc/config-main.cfg)
<closed>
#1175686 79 add "reload" function to IDLE
            (Closed as dup, 'autosave' is about F5.  Not relevant.)
#1326830 125 python scratchpad (IDLE)
             (Rejected.  19042 is a re-opening of this.)
