Calibre checkpoints require manual intervention.
Notepad++ does it. It's a Scite editor, so it may even be part of Scite furniture. I don't think Don Ho or Neil Hodgson ever had serried ranks of slave coders in their garages.

None of the schemes are perfect, not even Wordperfect's - but they do work most of the time. They've got me out of a few black holes in the event of power fails, video card crashes or my own stupidity.
