	There is a public domain DA called Savior which will do exactly what you
wish.  It allows you to set the delay between saves, which key is used for
saving (if the application doesn't use Cmd-S, you can set it to whatever you
want), and a couple of other useful functions.  I haven't used it in a while,
but the product was quite well done and the author's reputation for good
products proceeds him.
	Hope that helps.
