Hello When I decide to abandon changes made to a buffer. I exit emacs without saving the file. It asks "Modified buffers exist; exit anyway?" I answer yes. Now I have an auto save #file# file there. How can I not get these files in this scenario? I want to keep auto save on because of it's many benefits. Thanks in advance. Kevin --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
