[Geany] 'Persistent undo'...

[Harold Aling]

Dear list,

I was thinking that it may be very usefull to have the undo history 
saved between sessions...

For example: I open a file, make a change, save and close it. The change 
didn't work and I have to undo that change. Unless I saved a previous 
version, I can't undo that change.

-or-

I'm really hacking at some files and I must stop to return to it an 
other day. By closing Geany I'll save all open files to a 'session', but 
when reopening that 'session' all undo history is gone... I'd like to 
return to it and continue with the files as if it were a minute ago.


I know this will create some overhead and I thus suggest that saving the 
undo history will only be done for all items in the 'recent documents' 
and the open tabs. Once a file is purged from the 'recent files' list 
and isn't opened in a tab, the history gets deleted.

A popular multi-track audio recording studio called Ardour has added 
such a feature to their upcoming release (2.0) and I think it makes a 
real nice feature...


How do guys you think about this?
