Can eclipse be made to autosave files you have open and are working on AND do so without setting off any actions hooked onto saving?
Does the option at Windows > Preferences> General > Workspace > Workspace Save Interaval ( in minutes ) do this?

This is available in Preferences > General > Editors > Auto-Save . See https://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/news/4.6/M7/#autosave-dirty-editors
You can use Smart Saving. It's a plugin for Eclipse 4.

It saves periodically and also when the editor tab or Eclipse lose focus. You can change the settings to adapt to your need.
