automatically save org-index after it changes?

automatically save org-index after it changes?

Hello,

Each time I use org-index to jump to some headline, the file where the
table lives is modified. Is there a way to automatically save the file
after each such change?

Thanks,

Alan

Does something *really* change or is the file marked modified with no
other visible change? If the lattter, it's probably a bug.

Something does change: the jumping count.

Thanks,

The solution I’ve found is not org specific, but it may still be of
interest here. I looked into how autosave work, and I can tweak it for
that particular file using:

# -*- auto-save-visited-file-name: t; -*-

This way the file is autosaved (for instance when emacs is idle) as if
it was really saved (and not in another file).
