There is a cdev called Autosave II which will do this. It can be configured to
ignore certain applications [so "Send XMODEM..." won't be invoked every 5 min.
while you're in ZTerm] and the delay time can be user-specified. However, I
cannot find the publisher just now. I know Egghead software carries it, and
it is very reasonably priced.
Alternatively, I have seen ads for a cdev/INIT called "Shadow" which lives
below the Standard File world and automagically, whenever you select "Save..."
maintains a second file, in a ddition to the one you explicitly create and
name.
