The circumstances were already mentioned in this thread. Vim creates
a .swp. If it exists, it uses one letter less -- .swo. If that also
exists, it uses another one less letter -- .swn. And so on.

On the other hand if one of them already exists, vim complains, that the
file is already open or a vim session crashed and whether you want to
open it, recover it etc. When you get to .swn, it is a sign that
something is not going well and you should do something about it. So
it's probably right think for tla to complain about \..*\.sw[a-n] files.
