There is an autosave built in, however it stopped working shortly after it was installed many years ago.

As others mentioned, there was a feature but not sure how reliable it is/was.  Will ask the developers to look into it.

If you can remember, click SAVE often! That feeling of losing a post that you worked hard on is terrible.
