TSE: File: Backup: How does the backup process work?
===
Steps: Overview:
 1. -If you set the backup settings as follows
     1. -If you set 'backup path' in the configuration
         1. -Whenever you save your file, also a file with the same
             filename is saved in that backup path
             1. -E.g. you are working with the file
                  c:\myFilename.txt
             2. -Your backup path is set to
                  c:\temp
                 1. -When you save this file, it is
                     1. -Saved as usual in
                          c:\myFilename.txt
                     2. -But also in the backup path
                         in a file with the same name
                          c:\temp\myFilename.txt
     2. -If you set 'backup extension' in the configuration,
         1. -Whenever you save your file, also a file with that
             extension is saved in the same path as that file
             1. -E.g. you are working with the file
                  c:\myFilename.txt
             2. -Your backup filename extension is set to
                  bak
                 1. -When you save this file, it is
                     1. -Saved as usual in
                          c:\myFilename.txt
                     2. -But also a backup file
                         in the same path, with
                         that backup extension
                         in a file with the same name
                          c:\myFilename.bak
     3. -Note:
         1. -If you set the 'backup path', then
             the 'backup extension' is ignored.
             The backup will then thus be handled
             according to setting of the 'backup path'
             process.
