This would be a nice feature.  Unsaved scripts should be saved every n seconds 
or maybe n lines executed in the IJX.  They should *not* be saved over the 
original script, but instead in a special autosave folder under temp.

As in Word et al, upon starting J, the user should be prompted to manage any 
previously-unacknowledged autsaved scripts.  Ideally, J could launch a 
(user-selected, user-installed) diff tool to highlight the changes between the 
autosaved script and the manually-saved one.

In the pipe dream, JGTK would integrate seamlessly with svn (or any vcs) and 
have an "autosave" branch that gets committed to every once in a while, and 
which can be merged into the main branch at the user's convenience.
