* [sup-talk] Can sup only "save threads" on exit??

When I quit, sup goes through a slow process where it "saves" all the
modified threads.  This is problematic because 1) it takes a long
time, and 2) if sup crashes before I get a chance to exit, then I have
to rearchive everything again.

Thanks.

Do a 'H' and look at the help.  '$' does save now.

The help is '?' actually.

Great.  Is there a setting to make sup do this automatically every
once in a while?  It would be nice to be able to leave sup open all
day, or many days, and not have to worry about remembering to hit '$'
or a crash.

Thanks.

Point me to a beginning ruby tutorial!  I've never contributed to
anything open source before.  So exciting.

I have this in my ~/.sup/hooks/before-poll.rb:
  say "Saving threads"
  InboxMode.instance.save

However saving from time to time would be nice also.
Moreover saving the contacts.txt file on '$' would be also nice.

There are a couple Ruby for beginners tutorials:
- http://pine.fm/LearnToProgram/?Chapter=01,
- http://poignantguide.net/ruby/ (best read while high),
- http://tryruby.hobix.com/

But you might be better of with Ruby for Java programmers stuff:
- http://onestepback.org/articles/10things/
- http://www.jroller.com/obie/entry/ruby_primer_for_java_programmers

etc.

You'll also have to know git to contribute to Sup. See
http://sup.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl?Contributing.

'H' is help everywhere except thread-view-mode, where it's overridden
to view headers. Maybe it shouldn't be.

I've been avoiding this because currently the only way to undo changes
in thread-index-mode is to press @, which reverts you to the state you
were last time you pressed $. Undo patches also welcome. :)

I often use 'H' for headers, it's pretty natural. I think the '?' binding is
sufficient for help and that the 'H' alias could be removed.

Moreover to help newcomers having a little text in the bottom bar like "type
'?' for help" would be nice.
