howto use it:

Great work! this function is included by default in AHKStudio and is incredibly useful if you want to see a bit of code that you had in a script a week ago but took out because you didn’t think you’d be reusing it. This would be a hug benefit to people that are using other editors.

where?
I can not find it there in the source code. has it been renamed there?

Sorry, I phrased that incorrectly. A function very similiar to yours is included by default in AHKStudio. It creates a backup just about every time that you make an edit to a script. It's a little different from yours but has a very similar functionality.

yes, I knew that for a long time. but it is very different in two ways. First, the studio has no special versioning (sry fo my english). this simply saves everything with timestamp. if you look at the screenshots the difference will be clear to you.
Secondly, the ahkStudio only saves Auto Hotkey files (I'm not totally sure).

Example configuration for an IDE of jetBrains: ....\AutoHotkey.exe "H:\SaveLast5_to_BackupSL5.ahk" $FilePath$ H:\BackupSaveLast5
