The value of this attribute has the following syntax:

enabled = on | off

Examples: "remote", "both 2m", "remote 3Os on", "both off".

Autosave modes are:

local

Autosave interval units are:

s

Seconds.

m

h

Default interval is "30s". Minimal interval is "10s".

The default value of enabled is "on". This flag specifies whether the autosave feature is initially enabled. The user may change this setting at any time using the Autosave checkbox found in the Options menu.
