Hello,

can I (I suppose I can, it's Emacs) and how can I change the way Emacs
backup files. The default is to create a filename~ in the same folder.

My idea is to copy the file to another folder. When I edit and save ~/
text/file.txt the backup is saved in ~/.emacs.d/backup/home/florian/
text/file.txt.n with n being a number incremted form 1 to x each save.

Can I configure Emacs like that?

Thanks,

Florian
