    Is it possible to add an option to modify the naming/numbering pattern in EmEditor’s backup/auto save?

    For example, I would like to have the backup file name as xxx.txt~ or something else.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello cecilyen,

    Thank you for using EmEditor Professional!

    I might think about that in future versions, but I don’t know when.

    Thanks for your inputs! Please let me know if you have further comments.

    I’d like to see this feature as well.
    Perhaps something like IrfanView for Batch Renaming
    where:
    $N : Original Filename
    $X : Original Extension (IV doesn’t have this)
    $D : Current Date (IV doesn’t have this)
    # : One Digit Number/Counter

    Backup Options:
    First Backup: $N.$X~
    Next Backups: $N.$X~###
    Starting Counter: 1
    Increment Counter: 1
    Date Format: YYYY_MM_DD_hh_mm_ss

    ExampleFile.txt

    :: Backups::
    #1: ExampleFile.txt~
    #2: ExampleFile.txt~001
    99: ExampleFile.txt~099

    Backup Options:
    First Backup: $N.bak###.$X
    Next Backups: $N.bak###.$X
    Starting Counter: 0
    Increment Counter: 1
    Date Format: YYYY_MM_DD_hh_mm_ss

    ExampleFile2.txt

    :: Backups::
    #1: ExampleFile2.bak000.txt
    #2: ExampleFile2.bak001.txt
    99: ExampleFile2.bak099.txt

    Backup Options:
    First Backup: $N_$D_###.$X~
    Next Backups: $N_$D-###.$X~
    Starting Counter: 1
    Increment Counter: 1
    Date Format: YYYY_MM_DD

    ExampleFile3.txt

    :: Backups::
    #1: ExampleFile3_2010_08_16-001.txt~
    #2: ExampleFile3_2010_08_16-002.txt~
    99: ExampleFile3_2010_08_16-099.txt~

    Anyways, just my 3 cents.
