SUMMARY Hi. sorry strange english. krita was using prefix tilde"~" on name to save incremental backup. but tilde"~" is tilde expansion. on bash, on unix terminal command. https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/xcu_chap02.html#tag_02_06 2.6.1 Tilde Expansion what issue? can't catch this tilde on zmv or mv or cp or find command. and using tilde"~"000 is name. expansion after. this difficultest change to terminal rename or cp or remove or search. i suggest. name.extension > name-000.extension or name 000.extension (using space) any using except tilde"~" name. and name change. what think this?

oh i mistake. sorry. krita rename on save incremental backup is tilde~000 on name before extension. but tilde using is difficult using on terminal command. so example 1.kra > 1~000.kra suggest 1.kra > 1-000.kra 1.kra > 1 000.kra 1.kra > 1_000.kra
The tilde is a standard convention on Linux to mark the backup files, so it's most probably not going to change. If you're using Save Incremental backup, maybe you should use Save Incremental Version instead. It saves 1.kra > 1_000.kra > 1_001.kra > 1_002.kra, just as you wanted. The only difference is that it changes the current filename of the file you're working on, so if you click plain "Save" afterwards, it will save to the 1_00x.kra file, not to 1.kra. But it's easy to get used to, it's actually a saving workflow I use and recommend. I checked and I had no issues with backup file with 'cp' command. The link you gave clearly says that the tilde must be on the very beginning of the word to have any special meaning (and be expanded).
