Q Light Controller+

Hello!

I've experienced a nasty little bug on QLC+ 4.10.1 (Debian Testing, self-compiled Kernel 3.16, official precompiled QLC+) that killed my work of the last 4 hours. I've created a show with mp3-Audio, sequences and chasers. Saved my work from time to time. But once I pressed the save button, QLC+ crashed.

I don't know exactly, what caused the crash. I didn't save in another way, you know.
I can't reproduce it, because the qxw-file is empty, now.

I guess, this happens really seldom and most people won't get in touch with this issue, but I would request a workaround that could save the work, if that would happen again:
Is it possible to save the .qxw in a temporary file, first, that only will be renamed to the "real" qxw-file, if no crash happens and the .qxw-file seems to be o.k.?

Just an idea. I'm no coder, so I don't know if this is feasible...

One thing you can do is save the same file with a different name. use Save As show_1 and Show_2 and alternate back and forth as you work so you can at least go back to one good show.

I am warned. I know, how to save my work and that it seems to be necessary.
I'm thinking about people with less technical background that won't give a programm another chance that killed their time. Which would be a pity, cause QLC+ is really great!
