Subject: .org.bak files are in Org mode -- intended?
Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2023 11:12:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <25543.50706.554658.6937@gargle.gargle.HOWL> (raw)


I have noticed by chance that files with the .org.bak extension are in
Org mode by default.

If one does not pay attention, it can lead to mistakes.

If it is really intended, why not mention it in the manual? (In 1.3,
where it is said that "Files with the ‘.org’ extension use Org mode by
default.")

Are there other similar cases?

Also, the names of files generated upon export, although making sense,
cannot be anticipated: while 'foo.org' is latex exported as 'foo.tex'
(as said in the manual), 'foo.org.bak' becomes 'foo.org.tex'.
