We may be speaking past each other. If you don't restart
emacs, why
do
you need a function to save the playlist position?
As I said, things can go wrong, and emacs crashes. Sometimes
this
happens more often than other times. But especially after long
sessions of emacs is it hard to recover the position from (my)
memory.
This is a slightly different situation that what we've
discussed. Previously, I understood it to be merely saving
playlist
positions so that they can be restored later. But now this is
described
as a case of hardening Emms against an Emacs crash.
Therefore, what you are describing sounds more similar to Emacs'
auto-save feature.
What that be a good way of describing it?
