- Subject: [jed-users] Only edit original file

Hi list members,
when editing files with complex names I would like to use wildcards.
The problem is that jed sometimes selects the backup file.
Example:
martinkl@maurice:~/tmp$ jed abc
Add "line 1" in the editor:
F10 key ==> File Edit Search Buffers Windows System Help
line 1
martinkl@maurice:~/tmp$ jed a*
Add "line 2" in the editor:
F10 key ==> File Edit Search Buffers Windows System Help
line 1
line 2
martinkl@maurice:~/tmp$ jed a*
Add "line 3" in the editor:
F10 key ==> File Edit Search Buffers Windows System Help
line 1
line 3
Instead of abc this time jed opened abc~.
Check:
martinkl@maurice:~/tmp$ for i in * ; do echo $i ; cat $i ; echo --- ; done
abc
line 1
line 2
---
abc~
line 1
line 3
---
abc~~
line 1
---
Is there a switch/parameter/etc which tells jed, not to open backup
files when called with a wildcard at the end?
Thank you
Martin
