Subject: 23.0.92; Add index entry for "autosave files" to Emacs manual
Date: Sun, 3 May 2009 10:21:22 -0700
Subject line says it all - add "autosave files" as a separate index
entry for "backup files".  Someone just asked in help-gnu-emacs about
autosave files, and the answer was to look in the manual for "backup
files".

 of 2009-03-30 on SOFT-MJASON

But autosave files are something completely different (they save the
contents of buffers that haven't yet been saved to a file).
