What's With the Tilde After the Stack File Extension?

[stephen barncard]

Normal behavior. Rev saves a copy to revert to in case of
interruption/crash. This happens rarely but you'll be glad it backed up the
stack first someday. If someone pulled the plug in the middle of the save,
you'd still have something.
