I have emacs 24.1 on one system and 23.3 on the other. It does it on both but both contain ubuntu. I have backups and autosave set to go to my .emacs.d/ folder. I can't seem to see why these are created or how to stop. Even running emacs -q they are still created and seem like a link to the system. Here is what it shows in dired: .#temper1.py -> big@big-desktop.774:1341142158 So a link to user@system but where is this file actually created??

These files are semaphores and make visible that some user on some machine is editing the file and has changed its contents while the file system still contains an elder, not yet updated and saved version. I don't know how to change this (not editing? Instantaneously auto-saving?). It might be useful to make dired/dired-x not show these (dired-mode-hook, dired-omit-files). -- Greetings Pete Don't force it; get a larger hammer. – Anthony's Law of Force ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
