Disable autosave
Hello, anybody figured out how one can disable autosave? I just *don't* want it, and I have my reasons.
Thanks,
l.
Mac OS X (10.7)
I did that once and was forced to reboot because after the deletion of the .DocumentRevisions-V100 folder,
I was unable to save a document.
The reboot re-created a new .DocumentRevisions-V100 folder so the process needed to be repeated every day.
This is why I wrote this script for an user which wanted a clean scheme.
He saved the script as an application and inserted it in the list of items open on startup (in the Account Pref Pane).

property redemarrageRequis : true
tell application "System Events" to set les_volumes to name of every disk whose local volume is true
repeat with un_volume in les_volumes
set ledossier to un_volume & ":.DocumentRevisions-V100:"
tell application "System Events" to set maybe to exists disk item ledossier
if maybe then
set cheminUnix to quoted form of POSIX path of ledossier
do shell script "chmod -R 777 " & cheminUnix with administrator privileges
delay 2
do shell script "chmod -R 777 " & cheminUnix
delay 2
do shell script "chmod -R 777 " & cheminUnix
try
tell application "Finder" to delete (ledossier as alias)
end try
end if
end repeat
if redemarrageRequis then
set redemarrageRequis to false
tell application "System Events" to restart
else
set redemarrageRequis to true
end if
