No, it didn't; I looked. The latest backup file I had was a couple weeks old. On that note I was wondering if there was any option to have emacs make more backup files. It seems it only does so when I first save the file after visiting it. But I normally only start a new Emacs when it crashes or I have to reboot my machine which isn't very often. So I end up without many backup files. -- Gregory Stark EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
