I have updated the description for several reasons: 1) This has nothing to do with GNOME. 2) There is a backup file type defined in KDE already. 3) I provide a testcase.
I hope you agree with the changes. ** Summary changed: - Konq Doesn't Hide *~ files + Konqueror/Krusader doesn't hide backup files ** Description changed: - GNOME programs often create backup files with the ~ extension. For - example, if I had a file called ToDo that I editted in gedit, a ToDo~ - would probably be created. *~ files are hidden in nautilus and even in - BASH. Konqueror and the file open/save dialogs should respect ~ backup - files and hide them. + An option to show/hide backup files similar to the option for showing + hidden files. There is already a file type "Backup file" defined in KDE + that includes "*~" and "*.bak" among other filename patterns. - This will help Kubuntu incorporate more smoothly with Ubuntu. + Steps to reproduce + + 1. Right-click on Desktop + 2. Create new text file (TODO) + 3. Save file + 4. There are two new files in the desktop (one is a backup file TODO~) -- Konqueror/Krusader doesn't hide backup files https://launchpad.net/bugs/39376 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
