I recently noticed there are duplicated saved documents in my files.
Specifically they are saved with an "~" mark next to them. I am assuming
they are using space and wondering how to stop this from further occurance.

Temporary files are usually left-overs from a crash. For instructions
on how to get rid of them, see:
