Ciao Mat
Can be auto.
It has three modes ...
-- "Auto",
-- "Once"
and
--"Menu".
"Auto" runs a monitor that restores wiki at user defined intervals. "Menu"
gives a way to change settings and see what is happening as well as to
switch into Auto or Once mode. "Once" mode does an instant restore and
exits.

Yes.
Multiple configurations are possible using settings files.
Its complimentary to other TW saving methods. Its additive, or it can be

It has no conflict with any other saver because it only works when you use
fallback download saving.

It means you "save" (to downloads) via TW and the file is copied back and
overwrites the wiki to keep it up to date.
Its a slightly differnet approach than plugin savers.
It supports TW5 & TWC. Most any browser.
In a way, its inspired by Eric Shulman who has long argued the merits of
default saving.
All Polly does is leverage download saving and add dimension to it.
"Parrots" (auto-cloning of wiki to other locations) are an interesting
innovation it has that other methods don't have.
