In Response to: OT: Just another Editor (ljp)

I have been trying UltraEdit and it looks very good.

What I can't find in it, and it is something I have been looking for for years, is the ability to automatically keep multiple generations of backups of a file as I edit it.

For example, let's say I have logon.bat. When I edit and save it saves the backup as logon.001. The next time I edit logon.bat and save I get logon.002 and so on.

Any ideas on how to get UltraEdit to do this, with macros I guess, or some other editor that does this as a standard feature.
