Slim, Thanks for trying that.  However, looking at some of the user comments on the plug-in page, one of them states “is that it simply executes the Save All action at regular intervals”. Your experience below seems to back this up.  This wasn’t really what I was after as that affects the main sour

So this one works. No delay at all, though. As soon as you type, it saves. There does not seem to be any configuration for it. With saving that frequently it may introduce some problems of it's own. I'm not sure I like it. But at least it works. Tested in 11.1. --- Cheers, Slim On 2019-12-10 1

Slim, Thanks, that plug in appears to describe exactly what I was after, just one minor issue, I am running Netbeans 10.0, shortly to upgrade to version 11. There doesn’t appear to be a version to support these instances of NetBeans. However, I have bookmarked the page and will keep an eye on when
