31 ;;; Code:
34 "Backups of edited data files."
38 "Finding files."
43 "*Non-nil means delete auto-save file when a buffer is saved or killed.
45 Note that auto-save file will not be deleted if the buffer is killed
46 when it has unsaved changes."
51 nil
52 "*Alist of abbreviations for file directories.
53 A list of elements of the form (FROM . TO), each meaning to replace
54 FROM with TO when it appears in a directory name. This replacement is
55 done when setting up the default directory of a newly visited file.
56 *Every* FROM string should start with `^'.
58 Do not use `~' in the TO strings.
59 They should be ordinary absolute directory names.
61 Use this feature when you have directories which you normally refer to
62 via absolute symbolic links. Make TO the name of the link, and FROM
63 the name it is linked to."
71 ;; Turn off backup files on VMS since it has version numbers.
73 "*Non-nil means make a backup of a file the first time it is saved.
74 This can be done by renaming the file or by copying.
76 Renaming means that Emacs renames the existing file so that it is a
77 backup file, then writes the buffer into a new file. Any other names
78 that the old file had will now refer to the backup file. The new file
79 is owned by you and its group is defaulted.
81 Copying means that Emacs copies the existing file into the backup
82 file, then writes the buffer on top of the existing file. Any other
83 names that the old file had will now refer to the new (edited) file.
84 The file's owner and group are unchanged.
86 The choice of renaming or copying is controlled by the variables
87 `backup-by-copying', `backup-by-copying-when-linked',
88 `backup-by-copying-when-mismatch' and
89 `backup-by-copying-when-privileged-mismatch'. See also `backup-inhibited'."
93 ;; Do this so that local variables based on the file name
94 ;; are not overridden by the major mode.
96 "Non-nil means don't make a backup, regardless of the other parameters.
97 This variable is intended for use by making it local to a buffer.
102 "*Non-nil means always use copying to create backup files.
103 See documentation of variable `make-backup-files'."
108 "*Non-nil means use copying to create backups for files with multiple names.
109 This causes the alternate names to refer to the latest version as edited.
110 This variable is relevant only if `backup-by-copying' is nil."
115 "*Non-nil means create backups by copying if this preserves owner or group.
116 Renaming may still be used (subject to control of other variables)
117 when it would not result in changing the owner or group of the file;
118 that is, for files which are owned by you and whose group matches
119 the default for a new file created there by you.
120 This variable is relevant only if `backup-by-copying' is nil."
125 "*Non-nil means create backups by copying to preserve a privileged owner.
126 Renaming may still be used (subject to control of other variables)
127 when it would not result in changing the owner of the file or if the owner
128 has a user id greater than the value of this variable. This is useful
129 when low-numbered uid's are used for special system users (such as root)
130 that must maintain ownership of certain files.
131 This variable is relevant only if `backup-by-copying' and
132 `backup-by-copying-when-mismatch' are nil."
137 "Predicate that looks at a file name and decides whether to make backups.
141 "*Non-nil in a buffer means always offer to save buffer on exit.
142 Do so even if the buffer is not visiting a file.
143 Automatically local in all buffers."
149 "*Non-nil means find a file under alternative names, in existing buffers.
150 This means if any existing buffer is visiting the file you want
151 under another name, you get the existing buffer instead of a new buffer."
156 "*Non-nil means visit a file under its truename.
157 The truename of a file is found by chasing all links
158 both at the file level and at the levels of the containing directories."
163 nil
164 "*Specify which files should be reverted without query.
165 The value is a list of regular expressions.
166 If the file name matches one of these regular expressions,
167 then `revert-buffer' reverts the file without querying
168 if the file has changed on disk and you have not edited the buffer."
173 "The device number and file number of the file visited in the current buffer.
174 The value is a list of the form (FILENUM DEVNUM).
175 This pair of numbers uniquely identifies the file.
195 "The directory for writing temporary files."
201 "The directory for writing small temporary files.
202 If non-nil, this directory is used instead of `temporary-file-directory'
203 by programs that create small temporary files. This is for systems that
204 have fast storage with limited space, such as a RAM disk."
208 ;; The system null device. (Should reference NULL_DEVICE from C.)
225 "*Non-nil means protect against I/O errors while saving files.
226 Some modes set this non-nil in particular buffers.
228 This feature works by writing the new contents into a temporary file
229 and then renaming the temporary file to replace the original.
230 In this way, any I/O error in writing leaves the original untouched,
231 and there is never any instant where the file is nonexistent.
233 Note that this feature forces backups to be made by copying.
234 Yet, at the same time, saving a precious file
235 breaks any hard links between it and other files."
240 "*Control use of version numbers for backup files.
241 t means make numeric backup versions unconditionally.
242 nil means make them for files that have some already.
243 `never' means do not make them."
251 "*When cleaning directory, number of versions to keep."
257 "*If t, delete excess backup versions silently.
258 If nil, ask confirmation. Any other value prevents any trimming."
265 "*Number of oldest versions to keep when a new numbered backup is made."
270 "*Number of newest versions to keep when a new numbered backup is made.
271 Includes the new backup. Must be > 0"
276 "*Value of t says silently ensure a file ends in a newline when it is saved.
277 Non-nil but not t says ask user whether to add a newline when there isn't one.
278 nil means don't add newlines."
285 "*Non-nil says by default do auto-saving of every file-visiting buffer."
290 "*Non-nil says auto-save a buffer in the file it is visiting, when practical.
291 Normally auto-save files are written under other names."
297 ;; Don't put "\\2" inside expand-file-name, since it will be
298 ;; transformed to "/2" on DOS/Windows.
300 "*Transforms to apply to buffer file name before making auto-save file name.
301 Each transform is a list (REGEXP REPLACEMENT UNIQUIFY):
302 REGEXP is a regular expression to match against the file name.
303 If it matches, `replace-match' is used to replace the
304 matching part with REPLACEMENT.
305 If the optional element UNIQUIFY is non-nil, the auto-save file name is
306 constructed by taking the directory part of the replaced file-name,
307 concatenated with the buffer file name with all directory separators
308 changed to `!' to prevent clashes. This will not work
309 correctly if your filesystem truncates the resulting name.
311 All the transforms in the list are tried, in the order they are listed.
312 When one transform applies, its result is final;
313 no further transforms are tried.
315 The default value is set up to put the auto-save file into the
316 temporary directory (see the variable `temporary-file-directory') for
317 editing a remote file.
319 On MS-DOS filesystems without long names this variable is always
320 ignored."

328 If `silently', don't ask the user before saving."

334 To visit the directory, `find-file' runs `find-directory-functions'."
