Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm fairly certain the tilde-suffixed backup files 
are created by the OS, not Nuke itself.

Hi, 

Ron is correct. Scripts ending in a tilde are backups of the existing script. 
Though, they're only made once per session for a particular script. For example 
if you load a fresh Nuke, open a script make some changes and save, then a new 
backup will be made. However, subsequent changes/saves won't create another 
backup of that script until you start a new Nuke session.

hth!

Oh God. Beyond me, Howard. 
Remembering what I was told way back when - the tilde that comes after the .nk 
means what I said earlier. As it relates to autosave - I'm not sure.

Thanks. 

Hmm… bit confused… 

There is only ‘~’ and ‘.autosave’ no .autosave~’

but are you saying that ‘~’ preceeds the autosave, that is, it’s a back up of 
the last autosave?

Far as I recall, all the nuke files ending with a tilde are 
one-version-previous to the latest. So the autosave will be the autosave 
previous to the one called autosave, in case the last one is corrupt.

Hi

May be a dumb question but does anyone know the difference between a script 
ending in 

‘.autosave’ and ending in 
‘~’

This may be a mac osx thing but the autosave is obvious - it’s the ‘~’ that is 
not.

Just cleaning up a load of both of these left over from, I guess, crashes - 
getting a lot of those in nuke 9 :(
