Using filters for "~"

Help & Support
1

Hello.

I'm trying to use some filters to make easy to find many Delphi backup files. I have too many folders with Delphi files and it's becoming hard to isolate one by one.

Delphi backup files are most like file.~ext. An example: "myprg.~pas" is a backup for "myprg.pas". There are many other types, for dfm, ddp, dpr, etc, extensions. If I put .~ in the field "Name matching" at Find window the result is none. The same if I put this at Filter field.

So, how to show only extensions beginning with "~"?

Thx

~ is a wildcard character so you have to escape it using ' like this:

.'~
