Hidden files?

I don't know exactly how Tellico saves .tc files. Some applications, 
when you ask "Save", they rename the original file with a name like the 
one you mention, save the new content and, if success, remove the old one.

I don't believe Tellico can do some kind of versioning. If you want this 
feature, it can be easily done with a tool like git or svn. I do this 
with git.
