Save reminder

[l.boczek]

Hi All,

This might be an unusual request but has any body got a lisp program/macro or what ever is needed to be able to set a save reminder.

What i mean is, i want something to popup while i'm using autocad to remind me that i have not saved the drawing for a while. i know there is the autosave but that drives me crazy and quite ofter interrupts my train of thought/process and also more often then not causes autocad to chash/hang for rediculas amount of time. 12d model has such a thing as what i'm asking so i know that it is not impossible to do it.

So what i want is simply a dialog box to popup somewhere easily visible with a simple "ok" to save or "Cancel" not to save. It MUST NOT interrupt anything that i'm doing (like autosave does) it must just popup somewhere on the screen. And also have the ability to be able to set the reminder time.

Is anyone capable of doing this or has it been done before or is autocad program just that crap that it can't be done?

Thanks for your time and looking forward to your comments.
