Patches welcome in favor of complete files, in case you have already developed some better code. Include version, if patch is not against current stable release or trunk development version.

Download the zipped source from [download:datasaverplugin here].

Source

You can check out DataSaverPlugin from here using Subversion, or browse the source with Trac.

Installation

Do your normal Trac plugin install. If you are taking the install-into-Python route, add to your trac.ini:

[components]
datasaver.* = enabled

Example

Suppose you write a lengthy wiki page, but accidentally hit refresh or the back button? You'd be out of luck most of the time. I know I was. But with this hack, a link called "Restore Form" will allow you to retrieve your data from your last save. Any time you navigate away from a form page, the contents will be saved in a cookie and when you return you can simply click "Restore Form" to retrieve it.
