I dug into the code to try and fix this, but it's a lot more complex
than it looks. If anyone wants to start digging, look at `gedit-
tab.c:248` - that's the first catch conditional. Also look at the
function getting called if that conditional passes - there's a similar
catch conditional in there.
Yeah, wtf. So simple, and so valuable. Why oh why hasn't this been
tackled in 6 or 7 years since it was noticed!?!?!

Please implement this... I use gedit all the time and it's pretty damn
annoying that this feature hasn't been added yet.

Autosave doesn't work for Unsaved Documents

TextWrangler on the Mac autosaves unsaved documents and the entire
session. Notepad++ on Windows does this as well, albeit with some
configuring. Looking forward to gedit getting with the times.

Hello!
We are 4 french students (University Paris 8) and we have to fix bugs on open
source software for a class.
We searched among different bugs and softwares and this bug in gedit interested
us. So we decided to work on it, hopefully fix it.

Maybe a comment will bring this bug back to life. This is very serious
for my use of desktop linux - there's no excuse for program
configurations which lose user-entered text by default.

I added my support for the bug over at Bugzilla. Another problem is that
Autosave is not enabled by default. Is that a feature specific to Ubuntu
or is it also something to bring up at Bugzilla?

That's the problem. Here we have a huge group of users and one bug
tracking system but every project has it's own bug tracking system. I
even have a gnome, kde and other bug tracking accounts but i don't
report there since they also just say.. uh.. that's an ubuntu issue. Go
somewhere else.

Great logic. So, since cars and planes shouldn't crash perhaps we don't
need safety features developed for them? Seriously, this is faulty
logic. Software will from time to time crash. Sure, it shouldn't. But
if reasonable steps can be taken to prevent data loss, they should.
This doesn't
Sure, this is quite an old bug and yet it is still there. I guess they
might be willing to fix it now. It would be great if someone from the
Ubuntu Desktop team talks to them.

For me gedit itself has never crashed, yet I've been affected multiple
times by this bug.
Causes include:
* loss of power
* sudden freeze (Linux BSOD)
* failed hibernation recovery
* X11 killed after running out of memory
* my own stupidity (accidental ctrl+c/kill -9)

Thanks guy, I don't think anyone here disagree on the fact it's an
issue, Ubuntu doesn't write gedit though so you should better discuss
the issue on https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485471 where the
software writes will read it

gedit crashed before I saved, I had important data I lost. This bug
probably affects a lot of people.

I remember having a chat with the Gedit developers regarding this bug.
They believe that fixing this bug is not the solution, rather gedit
should not crash at the first place.
