gEDA-bug: [Bug 698813] Re: de-clutter gschem back-up files.

[Peter TB Brett <peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It is standard behaviour for Unix applications to create backup files
alongside the edited files, with a '~' suffix added.  gschem will
continue to work in this way.

Title:
  de-clutter gschem back-up files.

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  gschem backup files of the form <name>.sch~ create unnecessary clutter in the user's work directory.  The are important, and need to continue to exists is some easy to find location.  My suggestion would be to create a hidden subdirectory and place them there, such as: 
.gschem-backups/<name>.sch
