For a bit more explanation, they can be created if you edit a file - GEdit saves a backup by default, as does vi/vim. Other editors probably do the same. You can definitely turn it off in vim (but I can't recall exactly what incantation you need to write in .vimrc), and probably in GEdit too. Ah, yes - in GEdit's preferences, choose the 'Editor' tab and turn off the option to make a backup copy. The other option is to try using Ctrl+H in the file dialog where you can see the extra files. Maybe this will hide the backup files and let you just select the ones you want. This depends a bit on exactly how the program is written though...

I lost an hour of work today (don't worry I'm a PhD student, I often find ways to lose an hour or two during the day), and now have the theme tune going round and round in my head. Even whistled it in the corridor earlier :-S Good job, very interesting as always, keep up the good work!
