Strange thing happened the other day. I was on a long walk, and at some point while messing around with my phone, I accidentally clicked the x (the close program button) on the eCoach window. Luckily a prompt came up and asked if I wanted to stop the exercise or not. I clicked no, but the program closed down anyway!

After that, eCoach wouldn't start up again until I rebooted the phone. And after rebooting, the walk I recorded was nowhere to be found.

eCoach has been very stable and this is the only time something like this happened. Also the crash was partially due to my own error, so I'm not saying it's anything that needs fixing. However, since the gpx files are quite small and simple, maybe eCoach could write them to disk every now and then (doesn't have to be often), so that if a crash occurs and/or a reboot is needed, the file wouldn't be completely lost.

(I'd have to start a new recording in any case, but I think the gpx files would be easy to combine into one recording in a text editor, so that's not a problem.)
