12 – Preferences (Autosave)

Why do you need this?

Because sometimes computers and software unexpectedly shut down, and you don’t want to lose several hours worth of transcription by accident!

It is advisable to set CLAN to periodically auto-save your work.

  1. Click “Edit”
  2. Click “CLAN Options”
  3. In the top box, set the checkpoint to, for example 100. This will automatically save your work after every 100 characters.

If you set the number to 0 (zero) autosave is turned off.

Done – Congrats! You have completed the introduction to CLAN 🙂
