;;; Modification History
;;; ====================
;;;
;;; 12/28/1996  Version 2.0
;;; Updated for XEmacs 19.15b4, much of code reorganized & cleaned up
;;;
;;; 12/27/1996  Version 1.6
;;; explicit loading of dired replaced to use dired-load-hook
;;; (suggested by Thomas Feuster, feuster@tp4.physik.uni-giessen.de)
;;;
;;; 12/2/1996 Version 1.5
;;; Took out obsolete byte compiler options
;;;
;;; 9/24/1996 Version 1.4
;;; Fix some bugs, change to alist OPTIONS list (ok-create, full-path..) from
;;; separate fields for each option variable.  Added search-upward option.
;;; Added new function `find-file-latest-backup' to find a file's latest backup.
;;;
;;; 1/26/1996 Version 1.3
;;; Name change to backup-dir.el
;;;
;;; 3/22/1995 Version 1.2
;;; Added new definitions for functions `file-newest-backup', `latest-backup-file',
;;; and `diff-latest-backup-file' so various other emacs functions will find the
;;; right backup files.
;;;
;;; 4/23/1993 Version 1.1
;;; Reworked to allow different behavior for different files based on the
;;; alist `bkup-backup-directory-info'.
;;;
;;; Fall 1992 Version 1.0
;;; Name change and added ability to make directories absolute.  Added the
;;; full path stuff to make backup name unique for absolute directories.
;;;
;;; Spring 1992 Version 0.0
;;; Original
;;;
;;;
;;; Description:
;;; ============
;;;
;;; Allows backup files to be optionally stored in some directories, based on
;;; the value of the alist, `bkup-backup-directory-info'.  This variable is a
;;; list of lists of the form (FILE-REGEXP BACKUP-DIR OPTIONS ...).  If the
;;; filename to be backed up matches FILE-REGEXP, or FILE-REGEXP is t, then
;;; BACKUP-DIR is used as the path for its backups.  Directories may begin with
;;; "/" to specify an absolute pathname.  If BACKUP-DIR does not exist and
;;; OPTIONS contains the symbol `ok-create', then it is created if possible.
;;; Otherwise the usual behavior (backup in the same directory as the file)
;;; results.  If OPTIONS contains the symbol `full-path', then the full path of
;;; the file being backed up is prepended to the backup file name, with each "/"
;;; replaced by a "!".  This is intended for cases where an absolute backup path
;;; is used.  If OPTIONS contains the symbol `search-upward' and the backup
;;; directory BACKUP-DIR is a relative path, then a directory with that name is
;;; searched for starting at the current directory and proceeding upward (..,
;;; ../.., etc) until one is found of that name or the root is reached, and if
;;; one is found it is used as the backup directory.  Finally, if no FILE-REGEXP
;;; matches the file name being backed up, then the usual behavior results.
;;;
;;; These lines from my .emacs load this file and set the values I like:
;;;
;;; (require 'backup-dir)
;;; (setq bkup-backup-directory-info
;;;       '(("/home/greg/.*" "/~/.backups/" ok-create full-path)
;;; 	   (t                ".backups/"    full-path search-upward)))
;;;
;;;
;;; The package also provides a new function, `find-file-latest-backup' to find
;;; the latest backup file for the current buffer's file.
;;;
;;;
;;; This file is based on `files.el' from XEmacs 19.15b4.
;;; It has not been extensively tested on GNU Emacs past 18.58.
;;; It does not work under ms-dos.

  "Alist of (FILE-REGEXP BACKUP-DIR OPTIONS ...))
If the filename to be backed up matches FILE-REGEXP, or FILE-REGEXP is t,
then BACKUP-DIR is used as the path for its backups.  Directories may
begin with \"/\" to specify an absolute pathname.  If BACKUP-DIR does
not exist and OPTIONS contains the symbol `ok-create', then it is created if possible.
Otherwise the usual behavior (backup in the same directory as the file)
results.  If OPTIONS contains the symbol `full-path', then the full path of the file
being backed up is prepended to the backup file name, with each \"/\"
replaced by a \"!\".  This is intended for cases where an absolute backup path
is used.  If OPTIONS contains the symbol `search-upward' and the backup
directory BACKUP-DIR is a relative path, then a directory with that name is
searched for starting at the current directory and proceeding upward (..,
../.., etc) until one is found of that name or the root is reached, and if
one is found it is used as the backup directory.  Finally, if no FILE-REGEXP
