Hey folks,
I have used gVim in Windows for many years but I have never found an answer to a very simple question I am going to ask you guys...
My question is if there is a way to eliminate the creation of those ~ files that gVim creates in Windows. If you have ever used gVim in Windows you probably noticed that gVim creates a file with the same name as the one you were editing except tacks a tilde (sp?) "~" to the end...
Meaning if I were to edit the file "example.txt" gVim creates a file "example.txt~" and puts it in the same directory (as the original). I would not mind this if the file were deleted after I close gVim, but the file remains even after I close gVim. (I can open these "tilde files" and the appear to be just like the originals.)
Anyone know how to prevent the file from being created or how to have gVim automatically delete it when the editing is done?
Thanks a million!
