In ten years of using E-Prime, I cannot think of any instance where 
E-Prime failed in such a way that we would have had need of such a 
backup, but I would be interested to hear from others.  FWIW, E-Prime 
does record everything to a text file on the disk on the fly, so even if 
it crashes mid-experiment you may recover the data up to that point 
using the E-Recovery program.

As for your question, I believe you could do such a thing with E-Prime 2 
Professional and sufficient programming in script.
