Research direction

Start by examining the named workspace.watchNotepad.watcher, workspace.watchNotepad, workspace.notepad, and system.agents.watchnotepad entry points shown in the screenshots and JavaScript snippet. The issue does not identify files, tests, or a concrete completion criterion, so the intended realtime backup behavior still needs to be established before implementation.

Description

A few screen shots for people who know Frontier, who will recognize this code from past experience.

We're plowing through all the deal stoppers, and this is the first day in a while that I've gotten some productive work done, got in the unmistakable flow of writing in Frontier.

Notes

It's been a tough march, but it feels like we're coming out the other side now.

Not the first time it's felt like that. ;-)

But we are now working toward a shipping version. I'm running all my stuff in a virgin root, making notes on all my mods, and shortly will be pushing rootUpdates out for all the changes. We've been down this road before.
