emacs backup filename

2003-01-18 Thread Ihsan Junaidi Ibrahim
Hello all,

It seems that every time I saved a file, emacs will create a backup of
the previous copy and tack a ~(tilde) at the end of the filename. I find
it annoying to have such feature, how do I turn it off? I'm using
xemacs21

Thanks in advance.

Try the command `M-x customize-browse' from within XEmacs.

Go to the info system's concept index and look for backup.  Select
and read.

Next time, try using info first.  If you can't find what you need in a
menu or index, search through the info files using the s (not C-s) key
while in info.
