Hi, In the past I have used Emacs for Linux, and I remember using this option for disabling the automatic backup files (*~):
(setq make-backup-files nil) I seemed to work well, however, under Emacs for windows I still see the files (with other syntax names, but I think they are created by Emacs). The point is that I'm not completely sure of this: here is the scenario: a) I need to use RAD ide for development (eclipse+rational+other stuff ... basically you can say it's eclipse). b) I edit my programs with Emacs for windows ;-) c) I tell RAD refresh to sync it with the filesystem, and from there I do other stuff (CVS operations, testing, debugging, etc). d) The interaction works pretty well, with the exception that I see files like this: file.ext.~1.1.~ where 1.1 looks like the CVS version (which is integrated within RAD). So, I'm not quite sure who can I blame for these files: Emacs or RAD? mmm, or myself ;-) Thanks! Regards, Dario.
