Your handling of that sounds good, but I'm curious: have you pinned down what's causing these saves to be interrupted?

I think it must be something to do with the on/off switch.

LOL.  Yep, that'll do it. :)

Linux doesn't provide shutdown notification for apps?

The moral may be that no matter how much training you do, and no matter how
many notices you put up or stick to your machines, if you're dealing with
people who basically use the app without knowing they are using a computer,
and are seriously computer-phobic to boot,  things like using the on-off
switch and not the mouse to close down, are just going to happen
occasionally.  Have to live with it.

I wonder if this may be a good argument to add an auto-save feature for your app.

Alternatively, since it seems the save has started but isn't being completed, maybe there's a way you could save the data in a smaller file so it saves faster.
