How would I sort out automatically backing up my scripts as I change them?

I'm thinking of something almost like Leopard's Time Machine (except will not get Leopard until my Mac breaks...) -- backing up a file as you change it wouldn't make much sense for huge media files, but it would make perfect sense for tiny script files.

Something like, add username and date (--user--2007-06-09--09-46) to the filename and store it in a Versions folder? Would it be worth trying to learn how to do Folder Actions things (have never got my head round Folder Actions)?

PS I have about three users, who are all me doing different things with different data. It's yet another reason to avoid synchronising the wrong version of a file...

Regards, Ruth
