Because savevers (script #89) no longer works properly with vim 7, you can see
what I'm trying to do here:
autocmd BufWritePre,FileWritePre * saveas "~/backups/vim/" . % . "-" .
strftime("%y%m%d-%H%M%s")
However, I'm getting an error detected. I tried putting the new name of the
backup copy into a variable and using that, thus:
let filename = "~/backups/vim/" . % . "-" . strftime("%y%m%d-%H%M%s")
autocmd BufWritePre,FileWritePre * saveas filename
but of course it writes the file literally as "filename".
How can I save a timestamped copy into a directory like that?
