Package: kfm
Version: 1.167.2.11

Would it be possible for kfm to avoid executing the backup files
(ie. files ending ~) in Autostart?  Emacs will make backup files
whenever you edit something, and if you forget about this then you'll
get two (or more) instances of it starting next time you log in.

On my system, I modified the 'kde' shell script to remove all ~ files, 
but that's a bit draconian (ignoring them would be better).

Best wishes, Silas
