So what *actually* happens when you save a file is, the old file is renamed by 
prepending a tilde (~) to the filename, then an attempt to save the file as the 
original is attempted. If all goes well, the backup copy is deleted. So in a 
sense you are not actually saving, you are saving as. 

Someone correct me on this if I am wrong.
