I use gedit to edit my Nagios configuration files, and it's set to make 
backups whose filenames end with a tilde by default.  Nagios ignores 
them since it's looking only for *.cfg, but they do visually pollute the 
directory listing and I tell rsync to exclude them when I copy the 
config files from dev to production.
