It'd be really nice if there's away to recover unclosed files
due to crashes.  Just last night, we had a 2500 frame anim
nearly completed after 13 hrs. of rendering when the machine
went belly-up.  All we got was an empty file. ;-(  

I hope future rendering programs will have backup facilities
during the render process to recover and continue a process in the
event of a crash.
